We analyze the macroscale behavior of random lower (and therefore upper) triangular matrices with entries drawn iid from a distribution with nonzero mean and finite variance. We show that such a matrix behaves like a probabilistic version of a Riemann sum and therefore in the limit behaves like the Volterra operator. Specifically, we analyze certain SOT-like and WOT-like modes of convergence for random lower triangular matrices to a scaled Volterra operator. We close with a brief discussion of moments.
