Dear all,

I want to generate a series of random number for the Poisson distribution as below: produce 2 random Possion distribution numbers with the mean is 1； 3 random Possion distribution numbers with the mean is 6; 2 random Possion distribution numbers with the mean is 4; 4 random Possion distribution numbers with the mean is 3 at the same time using R without forloop i.e.

sapply(x,rpois,lambda = y)

but both x and y are vectors ,and I should get a list like

[[1]] rpois(x[1],lambda=y[1])  [[2]] rpois(x[2],lambda=y[2]) .....[[i]] rpois(x[i],lambda=y[i])

Thanks
