The "POISSON" function is implemented by "gnumeric_poisson" in
plugins/fn-stat/functions.c which builds on the "ppois" and "dpois"
functions from src/mathfunc.c which are imported from sources from the R
project (http://www.r-project.org/) using the tools/import-R script.

The "RANDPOISSON" function is implemented by "gnumeric_randpoisson" in
plugins/fn-random/functions.c and builds on the "random_poisson" function
from src/mathfunc.c .

The sources can be viewed online under
        http://svn.gnome.org/viewvc/gnumeric/trunk/

HTH,
Ray
