    Note

    A regular plural that only some meanings of calculation can take. The countable ones pluralize freely: the results of working something out, rough reckonings and estimates, and expectations based on circumstances. The process itself stays uncountable, and so does the player's skill of working through moves and replies without touching the pieces. A player is good at calculation, not at calculations.
