Numerical computation of the module of a quadrilateral

The module of a quadrilateral is a positive real number which divides quadrilaterals into conformal equivalence classes. This is an introductory text to the module of a quadrilateral with some historical background and some numerical aspects. This work discusses the following topics: 1. Preliminaries 2. The module of a quadrilateral 3. The Schwarz-Christoffel Mapping 4. Symmetry properties of the module 5. Computational results 6. Other numerical methods Appendices include: Numerical evaluation of the elliptic integrals of the first kind. Matlab programs and scripts and possible topics for future research. Numerical results section covers additive quadrilaterals and the module of a quadrilateral under the movement of one of its vertex.
