@rhettinger: I like this proposal. @dheiberg: to me, it seems negative weights are explicitly not supported, from: https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#random.choices "Weights are assumed to be non-negative." Unless I am missing something. In my mind negative weights make no sense and the fact it produces garbage in your example is garbage-in-garbage-out. Maybe an enhancement could be made (but it would be breaking for some abusing the behaviour you showed) for it to error (or do something sane? If such a thing exists) but that should be a separate issue. ---------- nosy: +cryvate _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue40569> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
