Struct statrs::distribution::Cauchy

pub struct Cauchy { /* fields omitted */ }

Implements the Cauchy distribution, also known as the Lorentz distribution.

Examples

use statrs::distribution::{Cauchy, Continuous};
use statrs::statistics::Mode;

let n = Cauchy::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.mode(), 0.0);
assert_eq!(n.pdf(1.0), 0.1591549430918953357689);

Methods

impl Cauchy

pub fn new(location: f64, scale: f64) -> Result<Cauchy>

Constructs a new cauchy distribution with the given location and scale.

Errors

Returns an error if location or scale are NaN or scale <= 0.0

Examples

use statrs::distribution::Cauchy;

let mut result = Cauchy::new(0.0, 1.0);
assert!(result.is_ok());

result = Cauchy::new(0.0, -1.0);
assert!(result.is_err());

pub fn location(&self) -> f64

Returns the location of the cauchy distribution

Examples

use statrs::distribution::Cauchy;

let n = Cauchy::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.location(), 0.0);

pub fn scale(&self) -> f64

Returns the scale of the cauchy distribution

Examples

use statrs::distribution::Cauchy;

let n = Cauchy::new(0.0, 1.0).unwrap();
assert_eq!(n.scale(), 1.0);
