Computable


Definition:

  • (a.) Capable of being computed, numbered, or reckoned.

Estimable


Definition:

  • (a.) Capable of being estimated or valued; as, estimable damage.
  • (a.) Valuable; worth a great price.
  • (a.) Worth of esteem or respect; deserving our good opinion or regard.
  • (n.) A thing worthy of regard.
