class Poisson(ExponentialFamily):
    r"""
    Creates a Poisson distribution parameterized by :attr:`rate`, the rate parameter.

    Samples are nonnegative integers, with a pmf given by

    .. math::
      \mathrm{rate}^k \frac{e^{-\mathrm{rate}}}{k!}

    Example::

        >>> # xdoctest: +SKIP("poisson_cpu not implemented for 'Long'")
        >>> m = Poisson(torch.tensor([4]))
        >>> m.sample()
        tensor([ 3.])
