README

By endroid

This library extends the basic random functionality by ensuring that the appearance of items is evenly distributed while respecting their priority. Items with priority 3 will be shown three times as often as items with priority 1, while the shuffle algorithm ensures that the values are spreaded nicely.

Installation

Use Composer to install the library.

$ composer require endroid/priority-shuffle-random

Usage

<?php

use Endroid\PriorityShuffleRandom;

$random = new PriorityShuffleRandom();
$random->add('A', 1);
$random->add('B', 2); // Show B two times as often as the other items
$random->add('C', 1);
$random->add('D', 1);

for ($i = 0; $i < 12; $i++) {
    echo $random->next();
}

// Example output: CABDBDBACBAC
