enumerators
Those who tally
Enumerators are people who count or list things systematically.
The term appears most often in the context of census work, where enumerators go door to door collecting demographic information: Census enumerators faced hostility in some neighborhoods.
In programming, an enumerator is a data type or object that iterates through a collection of items.
