    Poisson Distribution--Help

    Questions:

    Vehicles arrive at an intersection at a rate of 10 per minute. A traffic light cycle lasts 45 seconds. What is the distribution of the number of vehicles that arrive per cycle?

    For the Poisson distribution with mean 7.5.

    I understand the excel function - "POISSON(x, mean, true / false)" can be used to solve it.

    But how can i write the VBA code to express it?? Help.

    Why would you want to?

    If you really do want the result in VBA then just use the
    WorksheetFunction.Poisson()
    syntax.
