470. Implement Rand10() Using Rand7()

难度：中等
来源：LeetCode

Given the API rand7() that generates a uniform random integer in the range [1, 7], write a function rand10() that generates a uniform random integer in the range [1, 10]. You can only call the API rand7(), and you shouldn’t call any other API. Please do not use a language’s built-in random API.

Each test case will have one internal argument n, the number of times that your implemented function rand10() will be called while testing. Note that this is not an argument passed to rand10().

Follow up:

• What is the expected value for the number of calls to rand7() function?
• Could you minimize the number of calls to rand7()?

Example 1:

Input: n = 1
Output: [2]

Example 2:

Input: n = 2
Output: [2,8]

Example 3:

Input: n = 3
Output: [3,8,10]
 

Constraints:

• 1 <= n <= 105

晕了这题，有空更新题解

class Solution extends SolBase {
    public int rand10() {
        while(true) {
            int num = (rand7() - 1) * 7 + rand7(); // 等概率生成[1,49]范围的随机数
            if(num <= 40) return num % 10 + 1; // 拒绝采样，并返回[1,10]范围的随机数
        }
    }
}
