FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -Presper Eckert and John Mauchly, makers of ENIAC, the first general-purpose electronic digital computer. These giant computers, which used thousands of vacuum tubes for computation, were the forerunners of today’s digital computers. The search for mechanical devices to aid computation began in ancient times.

Detailed explanation-2: -UNIVAC was a first generation computer.

Detailed explanation-3: -UNIVAC is an acronym for UNIVersal Automatic Computer. ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer) was the world’s first general-purpose computer.

Detailed explanation-4: -The machine contained 19, 000 vacuum tubes, 1500 relays, and several hundred thousand resistors, capacitors, and conductors. There were 20 accumulators, each capable of storing a 10 digit number. The ENIAC could perform about 5000 additions or 50 multiplications in one second.
