> This issue is used to track investigation on finding a weighted sampler
> without using internal reservoir.
> At present, the SimpleRandomSample has implemented a good
> acceptance-rejection sampling algo on probability random sampling. The
> weighted sampler could utilize the simple random sample with slight
> modification.
> One slight modification is: the present simple random sample generates a
> uniform random number lies between (0, 1) as the random variable to accept or
> reject an item. The weighted sample may generate this random variable based
> on the item's weight and this random number still lies between (0, 1) and
> each item's random variable remain independent between each other.
> Need further think and experiment the correctness of this solution and how to
> implement it in an effective way.
