Is the Poisson probability distribution discrete or continuous?
The Poisson distribution is discrete.
Is the sample size in poisson probability distribution?
It can be.
What is the difference between poisson and binomial distribution?
Poisson and Binomial both the distribution are used for defining discrete events.You can tell that Poisson distribution is a subset of Binomial distribution. Binomial is the most preliminary distribution to encounter probability and statistical problems. On the other hand when any event occurs with a fixed time interval and having a fixed average rate then it is Poisson distribution.
How do you differentiate a Poisson distribution and a binomial one in a level qns?
The Poisson distribution is characterised by a rate (over time or space) of an event occurring. In a binomial distribution the probability is that of a single event (outcome) occurring in a repeated set of trials.
What are the requirements for Poisson distribution?
Independent events with a constant probability of occurrence over a fixed interval of time (or space).
