How do I sample randomly based on some probability(wightage)?

Hi all, I need to randomly sample from a list where all choices have weights attached to them. The probability of them being choosen is dependent on the weights. If say Sample list of choices are [A,B,C,D,E] and weights of the same are [0.895,0.567,0.765,0.890,0.60] when I draw (say 2) samples then
