Scoring for Tulul Quotes Single Random Retrieval

[araishikeiwai]

Quotes should be scored in a way such that no quote appears too often or never appears at all

Hi rick. Does it mean we are not allowed to use Gaussian Random anymore?

Any idea what the probability distribution should look like? Right now we're using Python's built-in random.choice() function and from the docs it says the distribution is uniform.

quotes which appear often should have lower priority. so each quote has to be weighed. when a quote is picked, add 1 to the weigh. higher weigh = lower priority.

not sure how to utilise since we only have 1 variable
