likcauchy: Cauchy Log Likelihood Function

Description Usage Arguments Details Value Examples

Description

The log likelihood of a Cauchy density with data, x, location and scale parameters.

Usage

1
likcauchy(location = 0, scale = 1, x, log = FALSE)

Arguments

location

location and scale parameters.

scale

location and scale parameters.

x

vector of quantiles.

log

logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).

Details

The log likelihood is the log of a function of parameters given the data.

Value

A numeric scalar for the log likelihood of the Cauchy density given the data where location and scale can be held constant or if vector were given vector will be returned.

Examples

1
likcauchy(x = rcauchy(n = 2))
