Hi all!

I want to get a random integer between 0 and 7 and I’ve used the following:

```auto
Math.round(Math.random()*7)

```

The thing is that I want some numbers to appear more times than others.  
Let’s say that I have a loop that runs 100 times. I want:  
0 appear 28 times  
1 appear 28 times  
2 appear 19 times  
3 appear 14 times  
4 appear 6 times  
5 appear 3 times  
6 appear 1 times  
7 appear 1 times

How is this possible?

Thanks
