The first eletronic computer was made in 1900's, it was made in Pensylvania, it was able to precisely predict a rocket's journey from a distance to the another place. The modern computers are made by companies like apple, windows, dell, etc. The modern computers have advanced immensely since the olden days, today computers can do multiple things and the invention of them has enhanced the world/productivity largely. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:11:34 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585381 Vaibhav - History of Computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585404 The history of computers can be classified into 3 generations. The first being from 1937 - 1946, which could only perform a singular task and also used a lot of space and vacuum 
tubes. Then came the 2nd generation which culminated over 100 programming languages, with the first being Fortran.  Then with the invention of the transistor, the incorporation of bits was done into computers. Then the 3rd generation came with the invention of the integrated circuit. Because of this, the occupied space of computers became less and less which produced products like the Macintosh, MS-DOS, etc. From then on, the human civilisation continues to innovate, and divulge into quantum computing which paves the way for tougher tasks, further understanding and solving of lots of humanity's problems. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:11:39 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585404 Tanishi Moitra - History of Computers tanishimoitra1 https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585438 The history of computers started out with the invention of the abacus. With the help of the abacus, people were able to solve basic arithmetic operations like multiplication, addition, division, and subtracting. 

After this, the next most significant step towards modern computers was the first mechanical computer made by Charles Babbage in the 18th Century.  Despite not creating an actual model of his design, Charles Babbage's ideas and model was used to work out different types of calculations. Because of this, he was known as "the father of computers."

Charles Babbage created  a steam-driven calculating machine that would be able to compute tables of numbers. In 1890, Herman Hollerith designed a punch card system to help with the US census, which previously took 7 years. It was completed in 3 years and saved the government 5 million dollars. He started the company that ultimately became IBM. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:11:51 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585449 Anoushka- History of computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585588 Throughout history, computers have been to perform either complex tasks or to make daily life easier. The first example of a computer was invented in Mesopotamia and was called the abacus. It allowed for simple addition, subtraction, multiplication and division. Then there were instruments like the astrolabe, the slide ruler and the sun dial that were used throughout history in order to make calculations and make observations. Then, in the 1930's simple computers were made that used up a lot of space. Today computers are used in daily life and are a huge part of our lives.]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:23 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585588 Hiya- History of Computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585592 Charles Babbage, who is the "father of computers" invented the first working computer in the early 19th century. Before that, there were many other minor inventions that weren't as efficient as Charles's invention. After that more and more ideas were contributed and that's how the concept of computers has now been updated to how it is. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:25 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585592 Raphael Streeter - History of Computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585605  
A Brief History of the Computer. The history of computers starts out about 2000 years ago in Babylonia at the birth of the abacus, a wooden rack holding two horizontal wires with beads strung on them. Charles Babbage credited for building the first digital computer in 1642.

It was something that helped us to compute and compress data.

Through evolution and time we created smarter systems and machines that helped expand out view on computing and we keep pushing its limits.]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:28 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585613 Avianka Sharma- History of computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585617 Telex messaging- 1933
Message utilizes teleprinters, which go back to the 1910s for use in telecommunication. However, rather than utilizing expensive committed transmit lines, the wire framework associates those teleprinters to one another over voice phone lines, directed by adjusted phone switches. Remote variants of Telex before long associate remote districts of the creating scene.

C programming Language-1970
The C programming dialect is discharged. Dennis Ritchie and his group made C dependent on the prior dialect BCPL (Basic Combined Programming Language) and not long after re-composed the source code for Unix in C. In that capacity, Unix was effortlessly ported to different PCs and spread quickly. C is still broadly utilized today.


Vic-20-1980
Commodore discharges the VIC-20 home PC as the successor to the Commodore PET PC. Expected to be a more affordable option in contrast to the PET, the VIC-20 was profoundly fruitful, turning into the main PC to move in excess of a million units. Commodore even utilized Star Trek TV star William Shatner in ads.

The ideas of these innovations were combined together and together they came up with the creation of the first computer. The main creation of computers started from 1939 and it still keeps on evolving in todays world. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:31 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585638 Vedant Thakur - History of Computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585661 There are many fathers of computers. Charles Babbage is considered the first one. He invented boolean logic and algebra. This is essentially uses two numbers 1 and 0. The output of 1 is given when the value is true, and 0 when it is false. Then came Alan Turing, he made the Turing machine which carried out any arithmetic operation by executing orders. Konrad Zuse, made this more specific and created the first programmable computer. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:36 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585661 Shlokh https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585670 I learnt about the history of the modern computer. The first computer was the ENIAC, as the first general computer, it used vacum tubes. These tubes were able to use binary, and were the basis for modern computing. It weighed over 3o tons, and had over 18,000 tubes. It was also used in the creation of the hydrogen bomb. The program still remains classified. soon, transistors were introduced, and they were a much more reliable system in replacement of vacum tubes. The personal computer was introduced in 1981 by IBM. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:39 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585670 Arjun Gore - History of Computers arjungore2 https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585698 The history of computers and computing started off in Mesopotamia with inventions like the Abacus that made counting and keeping track of supply easier. It was revolutionary because it was the first piece of technology that was able to make calculations for math and numbers easier.

At that time computers didn't have multiple operating system, only single functions. Then 1951 the public was introduced to computers.  Then in 1953 IBM 650 and 700 series computers came out which had more functions, storage, and operating systems. After the integrated circuit was found, computers became smaller and more powerful running multiple systems at the same time. In 1980 Microsoft Disk Operating System was made and this enabled computers to be items for office and personal use. In 1983 Macintosh was made. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:12:49 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585712 Dhruv Sampat- History of Computers dhruvsampat1 https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585859 The idea of computers or a machine that could process data was made in 3000 BC. However, the first digital computer was created around the WWII. The first computer that was created for the mass public was created in the late 1900's. Since then, microprocessors are getting smaller and more efficient, making computers more versatile and powerful. ]]> 2019-01-17 09:13:34 UTC https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585859 Eeshan Zele - History of Computers https://padlet.com/puja_srivastava/kecxe8lcbp3s/wish/321585871 I first learned about the first Sumerian civilization from 2700 BC where the first abacus was invented. Later, in 87 BC, Antiythera mechanism (earliest known analog computer) was developed. After this, in 1703 AD, the bianary number system was developed by Gottfried Liebnitz.
