// Notes about generating poisson variates:
//
// It is unlikely that any implementation of std::poisson_distribution
// will be stable over time and across library implementations. For instance
// the three different poisson variate generators listed below all differ:
//
// https://github.com/ampl/gsl/tree/master/randist/poisson.c
// * GSL uses a gamma + binomial + knuth method to compute poisson variates.
//
// https://github.com/gcc-mirror/gcc/blob/master/libstdc%2B%2B-v3/include/bits/random.tcc
// * GCC uses the Devroye rejection algorithm, based on
// Devroye, L. Non-Uniform Random Variates Generation. Springer-Verlag,
// New York, 1986, Ch. X, Sects. 3.3 & 3.4 (+ Errata!), ~p.511
// http://www.nrbook.com/devroye/
//
// https://github.com/llvm-mirror/libcxx/blob/master/include/random
// * CLANG uses a different rejection method, which appears to include a
// normal-distribution approximation and an exponential distribution to
// compute the threshold, including a similar factorial approximation to this
// one, but it is unclear where the algorithm comes from, exactly.
