Hello,

I was using the dhalfcauchy function from LaplacesDemon. My understanding of the Half-Cauchy distribution is the density should be 0 for values less than 0. However, this does not appear to be the case.

dhalfcauchy(3,scale=0.1)
dhalfcauchy(-3,scale=0.1)

In both cases, the output is 0.007065702.
