How it works

Each block riding the conveyor is one operand. When it reaches the operator node it is folded into a running accumulator with a single update rule that depends only on the accumulator's current value and the incoming number — the same trick every real calculator and streaming-statistics tool uses to avoid re-reading the whole history on every step.

sum:     acc ← acc + x
product: acc ← acc × x
max:     acc ← max(acc, x)
average: acc ← acc + (x − acc) / n

Operation — which fold rule the operator node applies to every incoming block.
Spawn rate — how often a new operand block enters the conveyor, in blocks per second.
Operand range — the random 1..N range each block's value is drawn from; a wider range makes swings in Max and Average more visible.
Reset — returns the accumulator to each operation's identity element (0 for sum, 1 for product, −∞ for max, undefined for average until the first block arrives) and zeroes the operand counter.

Real-world relevance: this is exactly how a running total, a live leaderboard high score, or a streaming average on a dashboard is computed — one incoming value at a time, in constant memory, without ever storing the full list.
