Abstract
In this paper, we have derived the distribution of the minimum and maximum of two independent Poisson random variables. A useful procedure for computing the probabilities is given and a total of four numerical examples are presented. Of these four examples, the first two are on the generated data and the other two are on the Champion League Soccer data in order to illustrate the model which is considered here. The hazard rate and the reversed hazard rate, of the minimum and maximum of two independent discrete random variables, are also obtained and their monotonicity is investigated. The results for the Poisson-distributed variables are obtained as special cases.
