Encabulator: A hand-held device employing
Bistromathic (TM 1982 Douglas Adams) technology to calculate the individual amount owed by each member of a group sharing a taxi home after a night on the town.
For a minimum of data input the Encabulator takes into account the distance to each persons house, the loose change in their pockets, how much everyone has had to drink and how likely you are to get off with one of your fellow revellers. Which somehow means that everyone but you will always pay less than they owe.
(Great word Misty but is that a Retro or a Turbo-Encabulator?)
Define: Calculus.
