[rand.dist.norm.cauchy]

A cauchy_distribution random number distribution produces random numbers x distributed according to the probability density function

$p (x | a, b) = {(π b (1 + {(\frac{x - a}{b})}^{2}))}^{- 1} .$

template<class RealType = double>
  class cauchy_distribution {
  public:
    // types
    using result_type = RealType;
    using param_type  = unspecified;

    // constructor and reset functions
    cauchy_distribution() : cauchy_distribution(0.0) {}
    explicit cauchy_distribution(RealType a, RealType b = 1.0);
    explicit cauchy_distribution(const param_type& parm);
    void reset();

    template<class URBG>
