Along the time time I have put in Bugzilla a good amount of code for Phobos.

In Bugzilla I have an enhancement request that asks to turn std.random.dice
into a range:

Through Reddit I have found an efficient O(1) weighted choice:

So I have translated the Java code, with small changes, into a D almost-range:

The code contains some questions, some TODOs, and probably a Range mistake too.
