accumulators
Things that amass
Accumulators are devices or mechanisms that collect and store something over time.
In engineering, an accumulator stores hydraulic fluid or electrical energy for later release.
In computing, an accumulator is a register that holds intermediate results during calculations.
In betting, an accumulator (or acca) is a wager combining multiple selections—all must win for the bet to pay out: I had a five-team accumulator going until the last match.
