给定一个函数,它产生的是1到5之间的随机整数,写一个函数,它产生的是1到7之间的随机整数。

通过使用滚动总数,您可以同时
保持平均分配;而且 不需要牺牲随机序列中的任何元素。
这两个问题都是简单的rand(5)+rand(5)…类型的解决方案。下面的Python代码展示了如何实现它(其中大部分是证明发行版)。
import random
x = []
for i in range (0,7):
x.append (0)
t = 0
tt = 0
for i in range (0,700000):
########################################
##### qq.py #####
r = int (random.random () * 5)
t = (t + r) % 7
########################################
##### qq_notsogood.py #####
#r = 20
#while r > 6:
#r = int (random.random () * 5)
#r = r + int (random.random () * 5)
#t = r
########################################
x[t] = x[t] + 1
tt = tt + 1
high = x[0]
low = x[0]
for i in range (0,7):
print "%d: %7d %.5f" % (i, x[i], 100.0 * x[i] / tt)
if x[i] < low:
low = x[i]
if x[i] > high:
high = x[i]
diff = high - low
print "Variation = %d (%.5f%%)" % (diff, 100.0 * diff / tt)
这个输出显示了结果:

一个简单的rand(5)+rand(5),忽略那些返回大于6的情况,其典型变化为18%,是上面所示方法的100倍:

并且,根据Nixuz的建议,我已经清理了脚本,所以您可以提取并使用rand7…材料:
import random
# rand5() returns 0 through 4 inclusive.
def rand5():
return int (random.random () * 5)
# rand7() generator returns 0 through 6 inclusive (using rand5()).
def rand7():
rand7ret = 0
while True:
rand7ret = (rand7ret + rand5()) % 7
yield rand7ret
# Number of test runs.
count = 700000
# Work out distribution.
distrib = [0,0,0,0,0,0,0]
rgen =rand7()
for i in range (0,count):
r = rgen.next()
distrib[r] = distrib[r] + 1
# Print distributions and calculate variation.
high = distrib[0]
low = distrib[0]
for i in range (0,7):
print "%d: %7d %.5f" % (i, distrib[i], 100.0 * distrib[i] / count)
if distrib[i] < low:
low = distrib[i]
if distrib[i] > high:
high = distrib[i]
diff = high - low
print "Variation = %d (%.5f%%)" % (diff, 100.0 * diff / count)
其他回答
在php中
function rand1to7() {
do {
$output_value = 0;
for ($i = 0; $i < 28; $i++) {
$output_value += rand1to5();
}
while ($output_value != 140);
$output_value -= 12;
return floor($output_value / 16);
}
循环生成16到127之间的随机数,除以16生成1到7.9375之间的浮点数,然后舍入得到1到7之间的整数。如果我没记错的话,得到7个结果中的任何一个的概率都是16/112。
int rand7()
{
int zero_one_or_two = ( rand5() + rand5() - 1 ) % 3 ;
return rand5() + zero_one_or_two ;
}
简单高效:
int rand7 ( void )
{
return 4; // this number has been calculated using
// rand5() and is in the range 1..7
}
(灵感来自你最喜欢的“程序员”卡通?)
算法:
7可以用3位的序列表示
使用rand(5)随机地用0或1填充每一位。 例如:调用rand(5)和
如果结果是1或2,则用0填充位 如果结果是4或5,则用1填充位 如果结果是3,则忽略并重新执行(拒绝)
这样,我们可以用0/1随机填充3位,从而得到1-7中的数字。
编辑:这似乎是最简单和最有效的答案,所以这里有一些代码:
public static int random_7() {
int returnValue = 0;
while (returnValue == 0) {
for (int i = 1; i <= 3; i++) {
returnValue = (returnValue << 1) + random_5_output_2();
}
}
return returnValue;
}
private static int random_5_output_2() {
while (true) {
int flip = random_5();
if (flip < 3) {
return 0;
}
else if (flip > 3) {
return 1;
}
}
}
产生近似均匀分布的常数时间解。诀窍是625恰好能被7整除当你增加到这个范围时,你可以得到均匀的分布。
编辑:我的错,我算错了,但我不会把它拉下来,以防有人觉得它有用/有趣。毕竟它确实有效……:)
int rand5()
{
return (rand() % 5) + 1;
}
int rand25()
{
return (5 * (rand5() - 1) + rand5());
}
int rand625()
{
return (25 * (rand25() - 1) + rand25());
}
int rand7()
{
return ((625 * (rand625() - 1) + rand625()) - 1) % 7 + 1;
}
