L distributions at the beginning (black) and the end (red) of an iteration of the L pdf computation algorithm (top) and the corresponding individual k contributions (bottom) after division by the maximum contribution (corresponding to k = 39). The number of predicted counts in this step is 39.81 and the y-axis range corresponds to the [k₀, k₁] interval obtained with ϵ = 10⁻¹⁵.
