Density and random generation for the binomial distribution with parameters size and prob.

1 2	gdbinom(x, size, prob, log = FALSE, type = "d") grbinom(n, size, prob)

`x`	vector of quantiles.
`n`	number of observations
`size`	number of trials (zero or more)
`prob`	probability of success on each trial
`log`	logical; if TRUE, probabilities p are given as log(p).
`type`	specify the type; may be `"double"`, `"single"` (or short form `"d"` or `"s"`)

Very similar to the R stats functionality.

gdbinom gives the density and grbinom generates random deviates

The algorythm for simulating from the poisson distribution was modified from the GSL library which uses the modified from the GSL library which uses the Knuth method.
