PHP algorithm for generating random red envelopes

1. Background introduction

A while ago, the company's business had a need to generate red envelopes, which are divided into fixed red envelopes and random red envelopes. There is nothing much to say about fixed red envelopes, and random red envelopes require a minimum value. , and the maximum value, there must be at least one maximum value, there can be no minimum value, but any red envelope cannot be less than the minimum value.
I have never done this before and was a little confused, so I went to Baidu and found that all the red envelope algorithms I could find had various bugs. They would either calculate negative values ​​or exceed the maximum value, so Decided to make a set myself.

## 2. Basic ideas

In terms of random number generation, I learned from this The thoughts of a blogger@The miserable uncle:

Original text: For example, if you want to distribute 1 red envelope to N people, it is actually equivalent to getting N percentage data The condition is that the sum of these N percentages = 100/100. The average of these N percentages is 1/N. And these N percentage data conform to a normal distribution (most values ​​are closer to the mean).
Interpretation: For example, if I have 1,000 yuan and send out 50 red envelopes, I will first randomly select 50 numbers, and then calculate the average value of these 50 numbers, $avg, using $avg/(1/N ), you get a base $mixrand, and then divide the 50 randomly generated numbers by $mixrand to get the percentage of each number relative to the base $randVal, and then multiply $randVal by 1,000 yuan to get each The specific amount of the red envelope.

Still not sure what’s going on? It doesn’t matter, let’s code together!

Details to consider:

The following code is used to control specific business logic, and set aside fixed maximum and minimum red envelope amounts according to specific needs;

When calling splitReward($total, $num,$max - 0.01, $min); in the code, the maximum value I passed in was reduced by 0.01, which ensures that the maximum value of the red envelope generated is absolute. Will not exceed the maximum value we set.

<?php  
class CreateReward{
    /*
     * 生成红包
     * author    xx     2016年9月23日13:53:38
     * @param   int          $total               红包总金额
     * @param   int          $num                 红包总数量
     * @param   int          $max                 红包最大值
     * 
     */
    public function random_red($total, $num, $max, $min)
    {
        #总共要发的红包金额，留出一个最大值;
        $total = $total - $max;
        $reward = new Reward();
        $result_merge = $reward->splitReward($total, $num, $max - 0.01, $min);
        sort($result_merge);
        $result_merge[1] = $result_merge[1] + $result_merge[0];
        $result_merge[0] = $max * 100;
        foreach ($result_merge as &$v) {
            $v = floor($v) / 100;
        }
        return $result_merge;
    }
}

4. Pull it out for a walk

Basic code:

Set various initial values

<?php /**
 * Created by PhpStorm.
 * User: lufei
 * Date: 2017/1/4
 * Time: 22:49
 */
header(&#39;content-type:text/html;charset=utf-8&#39;);
ini_set(&#39;memory_limit&#39;, &#39;128M&#39;);

require_once(&#39;CreateReward.php&#39;);
require_once(&#39;Reward.php&#39;);

$total = 50000;
$num = 300000;
$max = 50;
$min = 0.01;

$create_reward = new CreateReward();

Performance test:

Because of the memory_limit limit, I only measured the average of 5 times, and the results were all around 1.6s.

for($i=0; $irandom_red($total, $num, $max, $min);
    $time_end = microtime_float();
    $time[] = $time_end - $time_start;
}
echo array_sum($time)/5;
function microtime_float()
{
    list($usec, $sec) = explode(" ", microtime());
    return ((float)$usec + (float)$sec);
}

Running results:

##Data check:

Detect whether there are negative values, whether there is a maximum value, how many maximum values ​​there are, and whether there is a value smaller than the minimum value;

$reward_arr = $create_reward->random_red($total, $num, $max, $min);
sort($reward_arr);//正序，最小的在前面
$sum = 0;
$min_count = 0;
$max_count = 0;
foreach($reward_arr as $i => $val) {
    if ($i第".($i+1)."个红包，金额为：".$val."<br>";  
    } 
    if ($val == $max) {
          $max_count++;
    }
    if ($val 已生成红包总金额为：'.($sum/100).';总个数为：'.count($reward_arr).'<hr>';
//检测有没有小于0的值
echo "<br>最大值:".($val/100).',共有'.$max_count.'个最大值，共有'.$min_count.'个值比最小值小';

Run results:

##Normal distribution chart:

Note that when publishing the chart, do not give too many red envelopes, otherwise the page will render If it doesn’t come out, it will collapse

##

$reward_arr = $create_reward->random_red($total, $num, $max, $min);
$show = array();
rsort($reward_arr);
//为了更直观的显示正态分布效果,需要将数组重新排序
foreach($reward_arr as $k=>$value)
{
    $t=$k%2;
    if(!$t) $show[]=$value;;
    else array_unshift($show,$value);
}
echo "设定最大值为:".$max.',最小值为:'.$min.'<hr>';
echo "

"; foreach($show as $val) {     #线条长度计算     $width=intval($num*$val*300/$total);     echo ""; } echo "

红包金额	图示
{$val}

";
Run result:

PS: A friend asked me if the data I generated has been verified mathematically to see if it conforms to the standard normal distribution, because my mathematics No, I really haven’t thought about this. I just looked like him and assumed he was.

Since I have encountered this problem, I must solve it, so I used php
built-in function

to calculate it. The calculated result is relatively close to the normal distribution when the amount of data is small. But when the amount of data increases, it cannot be viewed. I don’t quite understand this. If you are interested, you can find out the reason.

Four functions of php: stats_standard_deviation (standard deviation), stats_variance (variance), stats_kurtosis (kurtosis), stats_skew (skewness)

Using the above functions requires
installation stats extension＠Download Address
5. In the end
At this point, I have finished writing the red envelope. I don’t know if I can get a 50 yuan salary increase, but it should be able to solve the urgent need.

##Oh yes, I also left this code to package and download
