as those corresponding to this special class of densities, although the term is used differently by various authors.

Analogously to the countably-infinite case above, there are subtleties with this expression due to the infinite region of integration. Such subtleties can be seen concretely if the distribution of is given by the Cauchy distribution , so that . It is straightforward to compute in this case that

The limit of this expression as and does not exist: if the limits are taken
