Documentation for Eidos function rpois, which is a method of Eidos. Note that the R function is a stub, it does not do anything in R (except bring up this documentation). It will only do anything useful when used inside a slim_block function further nested in a slim_script function call, where it will be translated into valid SLiM code as part of a full SLiM script.

eidos_rpois(n, lambda)

Arguments

n

An object of type integer or numeric. Must be of length 1 (a singleton). See details for description.

lambda

An object of type integer or numeric. See details for description.

Value

An object of type integer.

Details

Documentation for this function can be found in the official SLiM manual: page NA.

Returns a vector of n random draws from a Poisson distribution with parameter lambda (not to be confused with the language concept of a "lambda"; lambda here is just the name of a parameter, because the symbol typically used for the parameter of a Poisson distribution is the Greek letter λ). The lambda parameter may either be a singleton, specifying a single value to be used for all of the draws, or it may be a vector of length n, specifying a value for each draw.
