dlaplace: Laplace (Double Exponential) Density Function

Description

Laplace (double exponential) density with mean equal to mean and standard deviation equal to sd.

Usage

dlaplace(x, mean = 0, sd = 1)

Arguments

x

Vector of quantiles.

mean

Population mean.

sd

Population standard deviation.

Value

dlaplace gives the density.

Details

The Laplace distribution has density \(e^{-|x-\mu| \sqrt{2} / \sigma} / (\sigma \sqrt{2}),\) where \(\mu\) is the mean of the distribution and \(\sigma\) is the standard deviation.
