FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Analytical Engine, generally considered the first computer, designed and partly built by the English inventor Charles Babbage in the 19th century (he worked on it until his death in 1871).

Detailed explanation-2: -Mechanical Age (1450–1840). The Babbage Analytical Engine, 1833, is considered the first steam-powered computer. Charles Babbage is considered by many to be the ‘Father of the Computer’ and his assistant, Lady Ada Lovelace, the ‘First Computer Programmer’ because she wrote mathematics problems for Babbage’s machines.

Detailed explanation-3: -Babbage is sometimes referred to as “father of computing.” The International Charles Babbage Society (later the Charles Babbage Institute) took his name to honor his intellectual contributions and their relation to modern computers.

Detailed explanation-4: -The Analytical Engine was a proposed mechanical general-purpose computer designed by English mathematician and computer pioneer Charles Babbage. It was first described in 1837 as the successor to Babbage’s difference engine, which was a design for a simpler mechanical calculator.

Detailed explanation-5: -English mathematician and inventor Charles Babbage is credited with having conceived the first automatic digital computer. During the mid-1830s Babbage developed plans for the Analytical Engine.
