Crunching Numbers
could you tell me, please, what it means ? (Crunching numbers) ? there is nowhere to be found (a definition I mean)

It is also often used for analyzing data, or just adding up long columns of numbers. I think it implies that the actual work isn't very hard, but that it is long and tedious.
I'm an Accountant so I do "number crunching" every day. I reckon that's my job description.
well, that is exactly what i found in a dictionary, however it seems more like adjective and I dont really see it here ... let me give you a passage from an artickle:
"Surely crunching numbers can't explain this kind of detailed description of a place you've never seen before but .... "
Simply replace "crunching numbers" with Josh's definition, and whaddya get, eh?
"Surely crunching numbers can't explain this kind of detailed description of a place you've never seen before but .... " --> Surely analyzing data can't explain this kind of detailed description of a place you've never seen before but |
