In looking through the doc on the random module I came across random.triangular():
======================================== random.triangular(low, high, mode) Return a random floating point number N such that low <= N <= high and with the specified mode between those bounds. The low and high bounds default to zero and one. The mode argument defaults to the midpoint between the bounds, giving a symmetric distribution. New in version 2.6. ======================================== I fooled around with it a bit and wrote this rough demo: <http://tutoree7.pastebin.com/s4J0Ww12> The skewing and centering possible by varying the mode, are obvious, but how is random.trangular() actually used?
