Detailed Description

Creates an Poisson distribution for use within SST.

This distribution is the same across platforms and compilers.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

PoissonDistribution::PoissonDistribution ( const double  mn )

inline

Creates an Poisson distribution with a specific lambda.

Parameters

mn	The lambda of the Poisson distribution

PoissonDistribution::PoissonDistribution ( const double  mn, SST::RNG::Random *  baseDist  )

inline

Creates an Poisson distribution with a specific lambda and a base random number generator.

Parameters

lambda	The lambda of the Poisson distribution
baseDist	The base random number generator to take the distribution from.

Member Function Documentation

double PoissonDistribution::getLambda ( )

inline

Gets the lambda with which the distribution was created.

Returns

The lambda which the user created the distribution with

double PoissonDistribution::getNextDouble ( )

inlinevirtual

Gets the next (random) double value in the distribution.

Returns

The next random double from the distribution

Implements SST::RNG::RandomDistribution.
