Last active November 18, 2020 19:19 — forked from irazasyed/weight-utility.php
PHP: Utility function for getting random values with weighting.
<?php
/**
* Utility function for getting random values with weighting.
* Pass in an associative array, such as ['A'=> 5, 'B'=> 45, 'C'=> 50].
* An array like this means that "A" has a 5% chance of being selected, "B" 45%, and "C" 50%.
* The return value is the array key, A, B, or C in this case. Note that the values assigned
* do not have to be percentages. The values are simply relative to each other. If one value
* weight was 2, and the other weight of 1, the value with the weight of 2 has about a 66%
* chance of being selected. Also note that weights should be integers.
