I entered the following command in R:
my_pois <- replicate(100,rpois(5,10))
I believe this creates 100 sets of 5 numbers in which each set should have a mean of 10. However when I look at the mean of each column(set created), this is what I get:
[1] 10.8 9.4 9.0 11.2 11.6 11.6 7.8 12.4 9.6 11.0 9.6 9.8 10.0 8.6 9.8 8.6 9.4
[18] 11.4 12.0 8.4 10.2 10.2 10.8 10.2 7.6 9.8 8.4 10.6 11.6 8.6 9.6 11.0 11.0 10.0
[35] 9.8 9.2 8.2 8.2 10.2 9.0 10.4 9.2 10.4 10.0 11.8 13.8 10.2 9.8 12.4 10.4 9.8
[52] 9.8 8.6 7.4 9.2 9.0 7.4 9.2 9.4 11.8 9.2 9.8 11.6 9.8 10.8 8.6 12.4 10.4
[69] 9.4 9.4 9.0 11.2 10.6 9.4 9.6 8.2 9.6 10.6 10.6 8.2 9.2 10.0 11.2 9.0 9.6
[86] 10.4 8.0 10.2 9.8 7.4 9.6 9.0 7.2 8.4 11.8 10.8 9.4 12.4 11.2 12.0
Shouldn't they all be 10 since we specified a mean of 10?
