The moment generating function is
M(t) = Expected value of e^(xt)
= SUM[e^(xt)f(x)]
and for the Poisson distribution with mean a
inf
= SUM[e^(xt).a^x.e^(-a)/x!]
x=0
inf
= e^(-a).SUM[(ae^t)^x/x!]
x=0
= e^(-a).e^(ae^t)
= e^[a(e^t -1)]
The MGF is exp[lambda*(e^t - 1)].
The exponential distribution and the Poisson distribution.
Yes.
Why belong exponential family for poisson distribution
Divide the total number of incidents by the total time. The result, representing the average number of incidents per unit of time, is the mean as well as the variance of the Poisson distribution.
Lamdba (like most Greek letters in statistics) usually denotes a parameter of a distribution (usually of Poisson, gamma or exponential distributions). This will specify the entire distribution and allow for numerical analysis of the probability generating, moment generating, probability density/mass, distribution and/or cumulant functions (along with all moments), as and where these are defined.
The MGF is exp[lambda*(e^t - 1)].

When implementing a C program to simulate a Poisson distribution, key considerations include understanding the Poisson distribution formula, generating random numbers using a Poisson distribution, and ensuring the program accurately reflects the expected distribution outcomes. Additionally, it is important to validate the results of the simulation and optimize the program for efficiency.

Why belong exponential family for poisson distribution
we compute it by using their differences
Divide the total number of incidents by the total time. The result, representing the average number of incidents per unit of time, is the mean as well as the variance of the Poisson distribution.
A poisson process is a non-deterministic process where events occur continuously and independently of each other. An example of a poisson process is the radioactive decay of radionuclides. A poisson distribution is a discrete probability distribution that represents the probability of events (having a poisson process) occurring in a certain period of time.
