PoissonV (VSL_RNG_METHOD_POISSONV_POISNORM)
Poisson distribution with parameter Λ. If Λ < 0.0625, the random numbers are generated by inverse transformation method. Otherwise, they are produced through transformation of normally distributed random numbers.
The VSL_RNG_METHOD_GAUSSIAN_BOXMULLER2 method is used to generate random numbers of normal distribution.
