I have list of of N Vehicle objects - the only possible vehicles are
cars, bikes, trucks.
I want to select an object from the list with a probability of : cars
0.7, bikes 0.3, trucks 0.1.
I've currently implemented this by creating another list in which each
car object from the original list appears 7 times, each bike 3 times
and each truck once. I then pick at random from that list.
This works but seems very clunky to me.
Why? It's a very simple, generic, easy to understand and fast solution to
the problem.
