A poisson_distribution random number distribution produces integer values i≥0 distributed according to the discrete probability function
P(i|μ)=e−μμii!.
The distribution parameter μ is also known as this distribution's mean.
template<class IntType = int> class poisson_distribution { public: // types using result_type = IntType; using param_type = unspecified; // constructors and reset functions explicit poisson_distribution(double mean = 1.0); explicit poisson_distribution(const param_type& parm); void reset(); // generating functions template<class URBG> result_type operator()(URBG& g); template<class URBG> result_type operator()(URBG& g, const param_type& parm); // property functions double mean() const; param_type param() const; void param(const param_type& parm); result_type min() const; result_type max() const; };
explicit poisson_distribution(double mean = 1.0);
Effects: Constructs a poisson_distribution object; mean corresponds to the parameter of the distribution.
double mean() const;
