f(x) = exp(-|x - loc|/scale) / (2 scale). Density, distribution function, quantile and draws by inversion of the morie Philox uniforms (identical in the Python arm).

Usage

LaplaceDist(x = NULL, loc = 0, scale = 1, p = NULL, n = 0, seed = 0)

Arguments

x

Evaluation points.

loc

Parameter.

scale

Parameter.

p

Probabilities for the quantile function.

n

Number of random draws.

seed

Philox seed.

Value

list(pdf, logpdf, cdf, quantile, random).
