Moments of elliptic integrals

The complete elliptic integrals of the first and second kinds (K(x) and E(x)) will be introduced and their key properties revised. Then, new and perhaps interesting results concerning moments and other integrals of K(x) and E(x) will be derived using elementary means. Diverse connections will be made, for instance with random walks and some experimental number theory.
