      2 {{alias}}( x0, Ɣ[, options] )
      3     Returns an iterator for generating pseudorandom numbers drawn from a
      4     Cauchy distribution.
      5 
      6     If an environment supports Symbol.iterator, the returned iterator is
      7     iterable.
      8 
      9     Parameters
     10     ----------
     11     x0: number
     12         Location parameter.
     13 
     14     Ɣ: number
     15         Scale parameter.
     16 
     17     options: Object (optional)
     18         Options.
     19 
     20     options.prng: Function (optional)
     21         Pseudorandom number generator (PRNG) for generating uniformly
     22         distributed pseudorandom numbers on the interval `[0,1)`. If provided,
     23         the `state` and `seed` options are ignored. In order to seed the
     24         returned iterator, one must seed the provided `prng` (assuming the
     25         provided `prng` is seedable).
     26 
     27     options.seed: integer|ArrayLikeObject<integer> (optional)
     28         Pseudorandom number generator seed. The seed may be either a positive
     29         unsigned 32-bit integer or, for arbitrary length seeds, an array-like
     30         object containing unsigned 32-bit integers.
     31 
     32     options.state: Uint32Array (optional)
     33         Pseudorandom number generator state. If provided, the `seed` option is
     34         ignored.
     35 
     36     options.copy: boolean (optional)
     37         Boolean indicating whether to copy a provided pseudorandom number
     38         generator state. Setting this option to `false` allows sharing state
     39         between two or more pseudorandom number generators. Setting this option
     40         to `true` ensures that a returned iterator has exclusive control over
     41         its internal state. Default: true.
     42 
     43     options.iter: integer (optional)
     44         Number of iterations.
     45 
     46     Returns
     47     -------
     48     iterator: Object
     49         Iterator.
     50 
     51     iterator.next(): Function
     52         Returns an iterator protocol-compliant object containing the next
     53         iterated value (if one exists) and a boolean flag indicating whether the
     54         iterator is finished.
     55 
     56     iterator.return( [value] ): Function
     57         Finishes an iterator and returns a provided value.
     58 
     59     iterator.seed: any
     60         Pseudorandom number generator seed.
     61 
     62     iterator.PRNG: Function
     63         Underlying pseudorandom number generator.
     64 
     65     iterator.seed: Uint32Array|null
     66         Pseudorandom number generator seed.
     67 
     68     iterator.seedLength: integer|null
     69         Length of generator seed.
     70 
     71     iterator.state: Uint32Array|null
     72         Generator state.
     73 
     74     iterator.stateLength: integer|null
     75         Length of generator state.
     76 
     77     iterator.byteLength: integer|null
     78         Size (in bytes) of generator state.
     79

     84     <number>
     85     > r = it.next().value
