I concur with Tim. Marking the original bug as "won't fix" for the reasons that he listed. In a separate PR, I'll modify the last line random.choices() to be "return [population[bisect(cum_weights, random() * total, 0, hi)] for i in range(k)]". That will make the function more robust (handling the exotic case with subnormal weights). ---------- resolution: -> wont fix stage: needs patch -> resolved status: open -> closed _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <https://bugs.python.org/issue24567> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: https://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
