In science, an accumulator is an apparatus by means of which energy or power can be stored, such as the cylinder or tank for storing water for hydraulic elevators, the secondary or a storage battery used for storing the energy of electrical charges, etc.
In computing, the accumulator is a hardware register in the CPU used to receive the results of operations performed by the arithmetic and logic unit (ALU). The accumulator register can often also be used to perform shifts and rotations on values.

In gambling, an accumulator bet a single bet which is linked on a number of other wagers, and the outcome is dependent on all the wagers winning. Odds for the accumulator are higher than those in a single bet, however they are below that of the true odds. The accumulator bet provides the gambler with a potentially high return for a relatively low stake, at an obviously reduced probability of realising a win.
