For example, say you have a group of 15 book authors. You want each author to review 3 of their peers' work. This function will randomly assign each author 3 of its peers to read.

- Every book is reviewed exactly 3 times.
- No one will review any book more than once.
- No one will review their own book.

The natural maximum distribution count is `n-1`so if you specify a count larger than that, it will be ignored and the largest possible count will be used instead.

e.g. if you distribute those 15 books with a count of 20, it will be ignored and instead every author will be assigned the maximum of 14 peer books to review.

Example
-------

[](#example)

```
use jpuck\PeerValueDistributer;

$books = [
    'John' => 'The Book of John',
    'Jane' => 'A Work by Jane',
    'Jeff' => 'Readings from Jeff',
    'Jose' => 'Words of Jose',
    'Jena' => 'Writing with Jena',
];

print_r( PeerValueDistributer::distribute($books, $count = 3) );
```

Output:
