// Class defining methods for shooting numbers according to the Poisson
// distribution, given a mean (Algorithm taken from "W.H.Press et al.,
// Numerical Recipes in C, Second Edition".
// Default mean value is set to 1, value used for operator()().
 
// =======================================================================
// Gabriele Cosmo - Created: 5th September 1995
//                - Added not static Shoot() method: 17th May 1996
//                - Algorithm now operates on doubles : 31st Oct 1996
//                - Added methods to shoot arrays: 28th July 1997
// J.Marraffino   - Added default mean as attribute and
//                  operator() with mean: 16th Feb 1998
// Gabriele Cosmo - Relocated static data from HepRandom: 5th Jan 1999
// M. Fischler    - Moved meanMax and defaultMean from private to protected
//          to accomodate derived classes RandPoissonQ & RandPoissonT
// M Fischler      - put and get to/from streams 12/10/04
