Review text

The author uses combinatorial expressions associated with putting balls in boxes to determine the probability distribution for the sum of \(r\) rolls of a balanced \(n\)-sided dice. The dice distribution is used to derive the probability distribution for the sum of \(r\) random variables uniformly distributed on \([0,1]\).
