Poisson Distribution — Intuition, Examples, and Derivation
<h1>1. Why did Poisson invent the Poisson Distribution?</h1>
<p><strong>To predict the number of events that will take place in the future!</strong></p>
<p>More precisely, <strong>to predict the probability of a specific number of events </strong>occurring within a fixed time interval.</p>
<p>If you have ever sold anything, this “<strong>event</strong>” could be defined as, for example, a customer making a purchase (the moment of truth, not merely browsing). It could also be how many visitors you get on your website a day, the number of clicks on your ads in the coming month, how many phone calls you receive during your shift, or even the number of people who will succumb to a fatal disease next year, and so on.</p>
