rcauchy() function in R Language is used to compute random cauchy density among a range of inputs.

Syntax: rcauchy(N, scale)

Parameters:
N: Sample Size
scale: Scale to plot graph

Example 1:




# R program to generate 
# random cauchy density points
  
# Setting seed for
# random number generation
set.seed(1000)
  
# Set sample size
N <- 20
  
# Calling rcauchy() Function
y <- rcauchy(N, scale = 10)


Output:

 [1]   16.654755   -9.459054    3.740548  -14.639724 -193.891140    2.160767

[19]    2.730892  -37.046773

Example 2:




# R program to generate 
# random cauchy density points
  
# Setting seed for
# random number generation
set.seed(1000)
  
# Set sample size
N <- 500
  
# Calling rcauchy() Function
y <- rcauchy(N, scale = 10)
  
# Plotting graph
plot(y)


Output:
