plot_poisson_likelihood function

Plot a Poisson Likelihood Function

Plots the Poisson likelihood function for variable $\lambda$

given a vector of Poisson counts y.

plot_poisson_likelihood(y, lambda_upper_bound = 10)

Arguments

• y: vector of observed Poisson counts
• lambda_upper_bound: upper bound for lambda values to display on x-axis

Returns

a ggplot of Poisson likelihood

Examples

plot_poisson_likelihood(y = c(4, 2, 7), lambda_upper_bound = 10)
