- _V_a_l_u_e:
-
- These functions provide information about the Cauchy
- distribution with location parameter location and scale
- parameter scale.
-
- dcauchy, pcauchy, and qcauchy are respectively the den-
- sity, distribution function and quantile function of
- the Cauchy distribution. rcauchy generates random
- deviates from the Cauchy.
-
- The Cauchy distribution with location l and scale s has
- density
-
- f(x) = 1 / (pi s (1 + ((x-l)/s)^2))
-
- for all x.
