Difference between Poisson and Binomial distributions.
If both the Poisson and Binomial distribution are discrete, then why do we need two different distributions?
What is the correct inter-arrival time distribution in a Poisson process?
It is unlikely that I will get a count in that interval (i.e. probability of observing no counts is high -> exponential distribution). But that does not mean that 0.1 sec is a highly probable time interval …
