Discrete distribution
Random number distribution that produces integer values according to a discrete distribution, where each possible value has a predefined probability of being produced:



The w's are a set of n non-negative individual weights set on construction (or using member param). The probability of each of the n possible numbers to be produced being their corresponding weight divided by the total of all weights.

To produce a random value following this distribution, call its member function operator().

Template parameters

IntType
An integer type. Aliased as member type result_type.
By default, this is int.

Member types

The following aliases are member types of discrete_distribution:

member typedefinitionnotes
result_typeThe first template parameter (IntType)The type of the numbers generated (defaults to int)
param_typenot specifiedThe type returned by member param.

// discrete_distribution
#include <iostream>
#include <random>
int main()
{
 const int nrolls = 10000; // number of experiments
 const int nstars = 100; // maximum number of stars to distribute
 std::default_random_engine generator;
 std::discrete_distribution<int> distribution {2,2,1,1,2,2,1,1,2,2};
 int p[10]={};

 ++p[number];
 }
 std::cout << "a discrete_distribution:" << std::endl;
 for (int i=0; i<10; ++i)
 std::cout << i << ": " << std::string(p[i]*nstars/nrolls,'*') << std::endl;
 return 0;
}

Possible output:
a discrete_distribution:
0: ************
1: *************
2: *****
3: ******
4: ************
5: ************
6: ******
7: ******
8: ************
9: ************
