poisson (version 1.0)

hpp.sim: Simulate homogeneous Poisson process(es).

Description

Get the n consecutive event times of an homogeneous poisson process with given rate. Note: the rate parameter is often referred to as lambda.

Usage

hpp.sim(rate, num.events, num.sims = 1, t0 = 0, prepend.t0 = T)

Arguments

rate

The rate at which events occur in the Poisson process, aka lambda

num.events

Number of event times to simulate in each process

num.sims

Number of simulated paths to create

t0

Start time

prepend.t0

TRUE: To include t0 at the start of the process, FALSE: Not include to at the start of the process.

Value

else, a num.events by num.sims matrix [num.events+1 if prepend.zero=T]
