stackoverflow上有个经典的面试题讨论,如何将随机范围从1到5变为1到7。
先提供两个算法参考:
int i;
do
{
i = 5 * (rand5() - 1) + rand5(); // i is now uniformly random between 1 and 25
} while(i > 21);
// i is now uniformly random between 1 and 21
return i % 7 + 1; // result is now uniformly random between 1 and 7
int rand7()
{
int vals[5][5] = {
{ 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 },
{ 6, 7, 1, 2, 3 },
{ 4, 5, 6, 7, 1 },
{ 2, 3, 4, 5, 6 },
{ 7, 0, 0, 0, 0 }
};
int result = 0;
while (result == 0)
{
int i = rand5();
int j = rand5();
result = vals[i-1][j-1];
}
return result;
}
