SurfaceAreaEllipsoidRevolution:

Path: ACPro/ACUtils

--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Compute the surface area of an ellipsoid of revolution.
   If a = c it returns the surface area of a sphere using the 
   exact formula for a sphere.

   Type SurfaceAreaEllipsoidRevolution for a demo of almost a unit sphere.

   Since version 2014.1
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
   Form:
   s = SurfaceAreaEllipsoidRevolution( a, c )
