; given this vector | |
(def probabilities [ 1 0 0 0.5 | |
0 0 1 0 ]) | |
; I want to run (< (rand) probability) against each element | |
; and ultimately get back either | |
(def result [ 0 0.75 1.5 ]) | |
; or | |
(def result [ 0 1.5 ]) | |
; where each row of four, in the above vector, represents row | |
; index + 0, row + 0.25, row + 0.5, row + 0.75 |
Beats my effort, I think:
(mapv #(apply + %) (filter #(< (rand) (second %)) (map vector (range 0 (* (count probabilities) 0.25) 0.25) probabilities)))
My result is a vector and not a list, but it's also quite a bit less readable.
