Default Randomize three variables subject to sum always equal to 1

If order is important, that certainly should be done.

For that matter, note that the third number isn't "completely random" at
any time - it's entirely determined by the first two.

Please keep in mind that your solution is NOT complete
random: The first number is (on average) higher than the
other two.

Exchange the indices of your array randomly, I suggest.
