poisson distribution def
a discrete probability distribution that applies to occurrences of some event over a specified interval
limit in poisson
there is no limit on the number of successes
assumptions of a Poisson distribution (3)
Events must occur one at a time, and occurrences of the events are independent
theoretically, an infinite 3 of occurrences of the event must be possible in the interval
The probability of a single occurrence of the event i8na given interval is proportional to the length of the interval
poisson probability formula
λ =
average # of occurrences of the random event in the specified interval
Do a poisson example
you gotta know this
do a Poisson distribution (at least)
this one is even better
