Sample size (nss) Sample size.
Distribution Probability distribution: binomial, Poisson.
Numbering Number (1..nss) the sample vector. •
Parameter(s) n = ; p (< 1) or λ = Distribution parameter(s). (For Poisson, n is ignored.)
Seed (0 for nonrepeating) Integer seed for the simulation. •
Show values Show the values of the graph coordinates.

Generates a random sample from the selected distribution. The underlying pseudo-random numbers come from the Fortran compiler.

A graph is drawn for the probability function (p) and accumulated probability function (P).
