Posterior for Cauchy Distribution
---------------------------------
Figure 5.11

The solid lines show the posterior pdf :math:`p(\mu|{x_i},I)` (top-left panel)
and the posterior pdf :math:`p(\gamma|{x_i},I)` (top-right panel) for the
two-dimensional pdf from figure 5.10. The dashed lines show the distribution
of approximate estimates of :math:`\mu` and :math:`\gamma` based on the median
and interquartile range. The bottom panels show the corresponding cumulative
distributions.
