Evaluate the sine-elliptic Mathieu function

Contributed by: S. M. Blinder

ResourceFunction["MathieuEllipticSin"][n, x, q]

gives the nth odd Mathieu function sen(x,q).

Details

Mathematical function, suitable for both symbolic and numerical manipulation.
The Mathieu function sen(x,q) satisfies the equation y′′+(bn(q)-2qcos(2x))y=0 where, for nonnegative integers n, bn(q) is the nth characteristic value for odd Mathieu functions.
The function sen(x,q) is π-periodic for even n, and 2π-periodic for odd n.
For certain special arguments, ResourceFunction["MathieuEllipticSin"] automatically evaluates to exact values.
ResourceFunction["MathieuEllipticSin"] can be evaluated to arbitrary numerical precision.
ResourceFunction["MathieuEllipticSin"] automatically threads over lists.
