<p><a href="http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RenyisParkingConstants.html" rel="nofollow">Rényi's Parking Constants</a> comes up when one puts down unit length cars on a interval, such that the probability of covering any two interval is the same.</p> <p>Are there any published results when the distribution is non-uniform?</p>
