numbers n.
[scientific computation] Output of a computation
that may not be significant results but at least indicate that the
program is running. May be used to placate management, grant
sponsors, etc. `Making numbers' means running a program because
output -- any output, not necessarily meaningful output -- is
needed as a demonstration of progress. See pretty pictures,
math-out, social science number.
