weighted_rand

A weighted random sampling crate using Walker's Alias Method.

Example

```rust use weighted_rand::builder::WalkerTableBuilder;

fn main() { let fruit = ["Apple", "Banana", "Orange", "Peach"];

// The weights of the output indexes.
// The higher the weight, the more likely the corresponding index will be
// output.
// In the following case, the output probabilities for each index are 0.2,
// 0.1, 0.7 and 0. If a weight value is 0, the corresponding index will not
// be output. In other words, the index 3 will not be output in this case.
let index_weights = vec![2, 1, 7, 0];

let mut builder = WalkerTableBuilder::new(index_weights);
let wa_table = builder.build().unwrap();

for _ in 0..10 {
    let i = wa_table.next(); // Will output 0, 1, or 2
    println!("{}", fruit[i]);
}

} ```
