beta_cauchy

Evaluate the function beta for the quasi-Cauchy prior

DESCRIPTION

Given a value or vector of values, find the value(s) of the function beta, defined as (g/phi - 1), where g is the marginal density conditional on the mean being nonzero and having a quasi-Cauchy prior.

USAGE

beta_cauchy(x)

REQUIRED ARGUMENTS

x	a data value or a vector of data

OPTIONAL ARGUMENTS
