We present an algorithm which allows a fast numerical computation of
Feldman-Cousins confidence intervals for Poisson processes, even when the
number of background events is relatively large. This algorithm incorporates an
appropriate treatment of the singularities that arise as a consequence of the
discreteness of the variable.
