Re: Weighted random numbers generator

There's probably a CPAN module that does it.

I have a similar problem and already searched CPAN, but couldn't find anything. Any ideas how such an algorithm might be called?

I'm not sure the algorithm would have a special name. It's just a name to generate "weighted uniform" distribution. I hope that the nodes in this thread helped you accomplish what you want - there is the initial solution and many improvements and ideas.	[reply]
