// Class defining RandPoissonQ, which is derived from RandPoison.
// The user interface is identical; but RandGaussQ is much faster in all cases
// and a bit less accurate when mu > 100.

  //   The method used for mu <= 100 is exact, and 3-7 times faster than
  //   that used by RandPoisson.  
  //   For mu > 100 then we use a corrected version of a 
  //   (quick) Gaussian approximation.  Naively that would be:
  //
  //	Poisson(mu) ~ floor( mu + .5 + Gaussian(sqrt(mu)) )
  //
  //   but actually, that would give a slightly incorrect sigma and a 
  //   very different skew than a true Poisson.  Instead we return 
  // 
  //	Poisson(mu) ~ floor( a0*mu + a1*g + a2*g*g ) )
  //						(with g a gaussian normal)
  //
  //   where a0, a1, a2 are chosen to give the exctly correct mean, sigma,
  //   and skew for the Poisson distribution.
