The chance of a given element being picked is proportional to the +/// value of the element. The weights can use any type `X` for which an +/// implementation of [`Uniform<X>`] exists. +/// +/// # Performance +/// +/// A `WeightedIndex<X>` contains a `Vec<X>` and a [`Uniform<X>`] and so its +/// size is the sum of the size of those objects, possibly plus some alignment. +/// +/// Creating a `WeightedIndex<X>` will allocate enough space to hold `N - 1` +/// weights of type `X`, where `N` is the number of weights. However, since +/// `Vec` doesn't guarantee a particular growth strategy, additional memory +/// might be allocated but not used. Since the `WeightedIndex` object also +/// contains, this might cause additional allocations, though for primitive +/// types, ['Uniform<X>`] doesn't allocate any memory. +/// +/// Time complexity of sampling from `WeightedIndex` is `O(log N)` where +/// `N` is the number of weights. +/// +/// Sampling from `WeightedIndex` will result in a single call to +/// [`Uniform<X>::sample`], which typically will request a single value from +/// the underlying [`RngCore`], though the exact number depends on the +/// implementaiton of [`Uniform<X>::sample`]. +/// +/// # Example +/// +/// ``` +/// use rand::prelude::*; +/// use rand::distributions::WeightedIndex; +/// +/// let choices = ['a', 'b', 'c']; +/// let weights = [2, 1, 1]; +/// let dist = WeightedIndex::new(&weights).unwrap(); +/// let mut rng = thread_rng(); +/// for _ in 0..100 { +/// // 50% chance to print 'a', 25% chance to print 'b', 25% chance to print 'c' +/// println!("{}", choices[dist.sample(&mut rng)]); +/// } +/// +/// let items = [('a', 0), ('b', 3), ('c', 7)]; +/// let dist2 = WeightedIndex::new(items.iter().map(|item| item.1)).unwrap(); +/// for _ in 0..100 { +/// // 0% chance to print 'a', 30% chance to print 'b', 70% chance to print 'c' +/// println!("{}", items[dist2.sample(&mut rng)].0); +/// } +/// ``` +/// +/// [`Uniform<X>`]: struct.Uniform.html +/// [`Uniform<X>::sample`]: struct.Uniform.html#method.sample +/// [`RngCore`]: ../trait.RngCore.html +#[derive(Debug, Clone)] +pub struct WeightedIndex<X: SampleUniform + PartialOrd> { + cumulative_weights: Vec<X>, + weight_distribution: X::Sampler, +} + +impl<X: SampleUniform + PartialOrd> WeightedIndex<X> { + /// Creates a new a `WeightedIndex` [`Distribution`] using the values + /// in `weights`.
