quantile.Cauchy: Determine quantiles of a Cauchy distribution

Description

quantile() is the inverse of cdf().

Usage

# S3 method for Cauchy
quantile(x, probs, ...)

Arguments

x

A Cauchy object created by a call to Cauchy().

probs

A vector of probabilities.

...

Unused. Unevaluated arguments will generate a warning to catch mispellings or other possible errors.

Value

A vector of quantiles, one for each element of probs.

Examples

Run this code
# NOT RUN {
set.seed(27)

X <- Cauchy(10, 0.2)
X

mean(X)
variance(X)
skewness(X)
kurtosis(X)

random(X, 10)

pdf(X, 2)
log_pdf(X, 2)

cdf(X, 2)
quantile(X, 0.7)

cdf(X, quantile(X, 0.7))
quantile(X, cdf(X, 7))
