ppois: probability mass function of a Poisson distribution with its syntax given by ppois(mean, n), which is the same as exp(lpois(mean, n)).

rpois: generate a random sample from a Poisson distribution (e.g., rpois(lambda) returns a random sample from a Poisson distribution with mean being lambda).

unifToPoisson: convert a uniform random number between 0 and 1 to a Poisson random number with its syntax given by unifToPoisson(mean, r), where mean denotes the mean of the Poisson distribution and r is the uniform random number.

lnorm: logarithm of the probability density function (PDF) of a normal distribution with mean being 0.
Its syntax is given by lnorm(x, std), where std denotes the standard deviation for the normal distribution.

lphi: logarithm of the cumulative distribution function (CDF) of a normal distribution with mean being 0. Its syntax is given by lphi(x, v), where std denotes the standard deviation of the normal distribution.

phi: the CDF of the standard normal distribution with syntax given by phi(x).

with its syntax given by dinvgauss(t, mean, shape).

ldinvgauss: logarithm of the PDF of an inverse Gaussian distribution parameterized by mean m and shape parameter n with its syntax given by ldinvgauss(t, mean, shape); that is, ldinvgauss(t, mean, shape) = log(dinvgauss(t, mean, shape).
