[lojban] garbage, in sense computing

[Pierre Abbat <phma@bezitopo.org>]

Several days ago I was investigating a malfunction in one of my programs. A 
subroutine was returning numbers close to 1e-317 for the control points of a 
Bézier spline. That number is garbage. (The correct value is about 200.) 

The program erroneously calculated the minimum as 50.6 or so and put it in an 
array of four numbers which it returned to another routine. The routine used 
the first and last to calculate an overall minimum and an overall maximum, 
ignoring the middle two. The middle two are festi.

What's the Lojban for "garbage", in the computing sense?
