FUNDAMENTALS OF COMPUTER

Detailed explanation-1: -In 1821 Babbage invented the Difference Engine to compile mathematical tables. On completing it in 1832, he conceived the idea of a better machine that could perform not just one mathematical task but any kind of calculation.

Detailed explanation-2: -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: -With the construction project stalled, and freed from the nuts and bolts of detailed construction, Babbage conceived, in 1834, a more ambitious machine, later called Analytical Engine, a general-purpose programmable computing engine.

Detailed explanation-4: -Analytical Engine is used to calculate the numerical value of trigonometric functions of any formula. Babbage used a series of punch cards for input during the design of analytical engine that are for: arithmetical operations, numerical constants, and load and store operations.
