I found this function really useful except for picking the last element, which is really really hard in comparison with the other elements, because only the number '1' in a random selection between 0 and 1 with double precision floating points can give the last element. Therefore, the probability of obtaining the last element is too low to be useful. var test = [0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9];for(i = 0; i< 1000000; i++){ rnd = this.game.rnd.weightedPick(test); if(rnd == 9) console.log(rnd);} PS: The way i solved this is by adding a "dummy"(or a placeholder) element in the last place of the array. So, any suggestion for a clean solution?. Thanks in advance.
