Erlang(m, n)

The Erlang distribution is a variant of the Gamma distribution with another name that generally refers to the special case when parameter «n» is an integer, while the corresponding parameter «A» in a gamma distribution is often non-integer.

The time of arrival of the «n»'th event in a Poisson process with mean arrival of «m» follows an Erlang distribution.
