Input is a matrix including service time and probability of service time. Another input is a random number. Function should transform the random number to service time.First column of the input1 is service time and second column is probability of that service time.<pre class="language-matlab">input1 = [
2 0.4
5 0.4
9 0.2]
</pre>We can calculate cumulative probability and Random Number Assignment with this input,<pre> Service Cumulative Random Number
 Time Probability Probability Assignment
 2 0.4 0.4 0.000 - 0.400
 5 0.4 0.8 0.400 - 0.800
 9 0.2 1.0 0.800 - 1.000</pre>input2 is a random number between 0 and 1 such as;<pre> input2 = 0.125</pre>Random number can be transformed to service time with the table. Random number (input2) is between first line of random number assignment<pre class="language-matlab">0.000 &lt; Random number &lt;= 0.400
</pre>as a result<pre> serviceTime = 2</pre>Note: You can assume that the sum of the probabilities will be equal to one.
