running count
Cumulative sum tracker
A running count is a cumulative total that updates continuously as new items are added or removed.
Unlike a final tally, it reflects the current state at any moment: The dealer keeps a running count of cards played.
The term appears in card counting, inventory tracking, and any situation requiring ongoing awareness of quantities: She maintained a running count of attendees as they arrived.
