inhomogeneous_poisson_generator - provides Poisson spike trains
at a piecewise constant rate
The rate can be altered in the following way:
/inhomogeneous_poisson_generator Create /sc Set
sc << /rate_times [0.2 0.5] /rate_values [2.0 4.0] >> SetStatus
The average firing rate of each realization of the Poisson process will be
0.0 in the time interval [0, 0.2), 2.0 in the interval [0.2, 0.5)
and 4.0 from then on.
The inhomogeneous Poisson generator provides Poisson spike trains at a
piecewise constant rate to the connected node(s). The rate of the process
is changed at the specified times. The unit of the instantaneous rate
is spikes/s. By default, each target of the generator will receive
a different spike train.
The following parameters can be set in the status dictionary:

==================== ================ =========================================
rate_times list of ms Times at which rate changes
rate_values list of spikes/s Rate of Poisson spike train
allow_offgrid_times boolean If false, spike times will be rounded to
the nearest step if they are less than
tic/2 from the step, otherwise NEST
reports an error.
If true, spike times are rounded to the
nearest step if within tic/2 from the
step,otherwise they are rounded up to the
*end* of the step. Default: false
