Poisson Distribution 1/3

What is it?

This distribution describes the probability that events occur in a fixed interval of time or space if they happen with a known constant mean rate and independently.

Examples:

Website visitors per month.
The number of meteors that will fall per hour.
The number of people die because of specific diseases.

Lambda in Poisson distribution:

Lambda is the key parameter of the distribution that represents its expected value. It can be defined as a mean number of events within a specified time or space.

Example with lambda:

Lambda represents the expected value; if our expected value of customers visiting the app per day is 10000, then the lambda, in this case, equals 10000.

# Simulating Poisson distribution
data = stats.poisson.rvs(1000, size = 1000)
sns.histplot(data = data)

plt.show()

.rvs() - function that is used to create a random distribution. The first argument is lambda and the second is the size of the sample. - .poisson - referring to the poisson object to work with Poisson distribution.
