Accumulator

/əˈkjuːmjəleɪtər/ noun

Definition

A device or person that collects and stores things; in engineering, a container that stores energy; in computing, a register that performs operations.

Etymology

From accumulate (ad- + cumulus 'heap') plus -or. The suffix -or creates agent nouns for people or things that perform actions.

Kelly Says

The same word 'accumulator' describes a hydraulic chamber in machinery, a betting term in sports gambling, and a CPU register in computer architecture—it's a perfect example of how a single concept can solve problems across totally different fields.
