divided by the variable's expected value Explanation: I think you mean "expected value" and not "desired value". -------------------------------------------------- Note added at 56 mins (2015-12-09 11:53:40 GMT) -------------------------------------------------- Hi Muriel, lambda is the expected value in the Poisson distribution, so yes it does apply throughout your piece of text. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Poisson_distribution mean = expectation = expected value = Poisson's lambda = expected number of deaths, in your context |
