Poisson Distribution Sample Generator

    Poisson Distribution Sample Generator

    Generate random samples from a Poisson distribution with rate parameter \(\lambda > 0\). Samples are generated using the inverse transform method (Knuth’s algorithm).

    * Enter the rate parameter \(\lambda\) and the desired number of samples.

    Step 1: Enter Parameters

    e.g., 3

    e.g., 1000

    Samples are generated using Knuth’s algorithm for the Poisson distribution.
