[R] Simulate an Overdispersed(extra-variance poisson process)?
Is there a function in R comparable to rpois that can simulate random variables from an overdispersed poisson distribution? If there is not a function any ideas/references on how to program one? thanks, Spencer Jones Graduate Student, NLM Fellow Dept.
