Function weightedSource

Returns a random number, 0..1, weighted by a given easing function. Default easing is quadIn, which skews towards zero. Use weighted to get a value directly.

import * as Random from 'https://unpkg.com/ixfx/dist/random.js';
const r1 = Random.weightedSource();          // quadIn easing by default, which skews toward low values
r1(); // Produce a value

const r2 = Random.weightedSource(`quadOut`); // quadOut favours high values
r2(); // Produce a value
