// Poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution.
// It expresses the probability of a number (k) of
// events, occurrences, failures or arrivals occurring in a fixed time,
// assuming these events occur with a known average or mean rate (lambda)
// and are independent of the time since the last event.
// The distribution was discovered by Simeon-Denis Poisson (1781-1840).

// Parameter lambda is the mean number of events in the given time interval.
// The random variate k is the number of events, occurrences or arrivals.
// k argument may be integral, signed, or unsigned, or floating point.
// If necessary, it has already been promoted from an integral type.

// Note that the Poisson distribution
// (like others including the binomial, negative binomial & Bernoulli)
// is strictly defined as a discrete function:
// only integral values of k are envisaged.
// However because the method of calculation uses a continuous gamma function,
// it is convenient to treat it as if a continous function,
// and permit non-integral values of k.
// To enforce the strict mathematical model, users should use floor or ceil functions
// on k outside this function to ensure that k is integral.
