php - 获取 2 个平均值为 `n` 的数字之间的 `x` 随机值

Question

我想获得 1 到 5(包括两者)之间的 n 个随机数(例如 n=16)(整数)，以便平均值为 x。

x 可以是 (1, 1.5, 2, 2.5, 3, 3.5, 4, 4.5, 5) 之间的任何值。

我正在使用 PHP。

例如假设我有平均值 x= 3。

然后要求 1 到 5 之间的 16 个整数(包括两者)。喜欢 (1,5,3,3,3,3,2,4,2,4,1,5,1,5,3,3)

更新:

如果 x=3.5 意味着 16 个数字的平均值应该在 3.5 到 4 之间。
如果 x=4 意味着 16 个数字的平均值应该在 4 到 4.5 之间
如果 x=5 表示所有数字都是 5

Answer 1

这个答案允许目标平均值的任何值(无论 n 是奇数还是偶数)并且避免使用递归来优化性能。

函数

function getRandomNumbersWithAverage($target_average, $n, $min=1, $max=5)
{

  if($min>$max) list($min, $max) = array($max, $min);
  if($target_average<$min || $target_average>$max) return false;
  else if($target_average==$min) return array_fill(0, $n, $min);
  else if($target_average==$max) return array_fill(0, $n, $max);

  if($n<1) return false;
  else if($n==1) return array($target_average);
  else
  {
    $numbers = array();
    for($i=0;$i<$n;$i++)
    {
      $sum = array_sum($numbers);
      $average = $i ? $sum/($i+1) : ($min+$max)/2;
      $contrived_number = $target_average*($i+1) - $sum;
      // Last one must be contrived
      if($i==$n-1) $new_number = ceil($contrived_number); // Round up
      else
      {
        // The tolerance gets smaller with iteration
        $tolerance = ($max-$min)*(1-($i/($n-1)));
        $temp_min = ($contrived_number-$tolerance);
        if($temp_min<$min) $temp_min = $min;
        $temp_max = ($contrived_number+$tolerance);
        if($temp_max>$max) $temp_max = $max;
        $new_number = mt_rand($temp_min, $temp_max);
      }
      if($new_number==0) $new_number = 0; // Handle -0
      $numbers[] = $new_number;
    }
    // Since the numbers get more contrived towards the end, it might be nice to shuffle
    shuffle($numbers);
    return $numbers;
  }
}
