Can i fix a sum of vector generated by Distribution Poisson?

Hello!

i used a function poissrnd to generate an arrival of cars into a segment highway during period T=3600 s .

this is my code:

lambda = 1/7;
v = poissrnd(lambda, 1, 3600);

but the vector v is changed , i want to get the sum(v) as a fixed value because i will use it in matrix.

i ask you if it is possible to do that or not?

thanks in advance.

Fix the random seed:

rng('default') % e.g.
lambda = 1/7;
v = poissrnd(lambda, 1, 3600);
