Suppose that U1, U2, …, Uk are IID U(0, 1) random variables. Show that the fractional part (i.e., ignoring anything to the left of the decimal point) of U1 + U2 + … + Uk is also uniformly distributed on the interval [0, 1]. [This property motivated the composite generator of Wichmann and Hill (1982).]
