Given an array w of positive integers, where w[i] describes the weight of index i, write a function pickIndex which randomly picks an index in proportion to its weight.
Note:
1 <= w.length <= 100001 <= w[i] <= 10^5pickIndexwill be called at most10000times.
Example 1:
Input: ["Solution","pickIndex"] [[[1]],[]] Output: [null,0]
Example 2:
Input: ["Solution","pickIndex","pickIndex","pickIndex","pickIndex","pickIndex"] [[[1,3]],[],[],[],[],[]] Output: [null,0,1,1,1,0]
Explanation of Input Syntax:
The input is two lists: the subroutines called and their arguments. Solution's constructor has one argument, the array w. pickIndex has no arguments. Arguments are always wrapped with a list, even if there aren't any.

两个问题:
1. 很容易想到二分,但是不知道有没有O(1)的解法,去Discussion看了别人都二分,才确定
2. 二分时候想了半天,才明确边界是lower_bound,第一个插入位置,思路得加速啊
import random
class Solution:
def __init__(self, w):
self.wl = len(w)
cur = 0
self.accu = [0 for i in range(self.wl)]
for idx, v in enumerate(w):
cur += v
self.accu[idx] = cur
def pickIndex(self):
l,r = 0, self.wl-1
rdint = random.randint(1, self.accu[-1])
while (l <= r):
mid = l + ((r-l)>>1)
if (rdint > self.accu[mid]):
l = mid+1
else:
r = mid-1
return l

本文介绍了一种基于数组权重的随机采样算法实现,通过累积权重和二分查找的方法,实现了在权重比例下随机选取数组索引的功能。讨论了算法的设计思路及边界条件的处理,提供了Python代码示例。
