Function rww(ParamArray w() As Variant) As Double
'Produces random numbers with defined widths & weights
'Rww expects a vector of n random widths and weightings
'of type double and returns a random number of type double.
'This random number will lie in the given n-width-range of the
'(0,1)-interval with the given likelihood of the n weightings.
' Call Randomize before calling rww!

'Examples:
'a) rww(1,0,1,1,8,0) will return a random number between 0.1 and 0.2
'b) rww(5,2,5,1) will return a random number between 0 and 0.5 twice as
'   often as a random number between 0.5 and 1.
'c) rww(1/3,0,1/3,1,1/3,0) will return a random number between
'   0.33333333333333 and 0.66666666666666.
'd) rww(5,15.4,3,7.7,2,0) would return a random value between
'   0 and 0.8, first 5 deciles with double likelihood than decile 6-8.
