Poisson limit theorem

In probability theory, the law of rare events or Poisson limit theorem states that the Poisson distribution may be used as an approximation to the binomial distribution, under certain conditions. The theorem was named after Siméon Denis Poisson (1781–1840). A generalization of this theorem is Le Cam's theorem.(For broader coverage of this topic, see Poisson distribution § Law of rare events.) (Wikipedia).

Central Limit Theorem: Verification using Poisson Distribution with Lambda = 1

This script is to verify the Central Limit Theorem in probability theory or statistics. The Central Limit Theorem states that, regardless of the distribution of the population, the sampling distribution of the sample means, assuming all samples are identical in size, will approach a norma
