oneapi::mkl::rng::cauchy¶
Generates Cauchy distributed random values.
Description¶
The oneapi::mkl::rng::cauchy class object is used in the
oneapi::mkl::rng::generate function to provide Cauchy distributed random numbers with displacement (a) and scalefactor (b, β), where 
.
The probability density function is given by:

The cumulative distribution function is as follows:
