The first known counting devices or tools were Tally Sticks from about 35,000 BC. The Abacus was then invented by the Babylonians in 2400 BC.

In 1837, Charles Babbage, a British professor of mathematics described his idea for the Analytical Engine, the first stored-program mechanical computer. The Analytical Engine was designed to be powered by a steam engine and was to use Punched Cards, which was used to program mechanical looms at the time.

What are the characteristics of micro, mini and super computer?

A microcomputer is a computer with a microprocessor as its central processing unit. Another general characteristic of these computers is that they occupy physically small amounts of space when compared to mainframe and minicomputers. Many microcomputers when equipped with a keyboard and screen for input and output are also personal computers.Minicomputer colloquially, mini is a largely obsolete

What are the characteristics of micro, mini and super computer?

services to end-users.Mini Computer :When the term "minicomputer" initially was coined it denoted a physically small, low-cost computer using available technology and designed to perform a specific function. Usage of these devices was limited mainly to the laboratory, certain process-dependent industrial tasks, and special-purpose computational problems. Today, the minicomputer is no longer limited

Who invented first digital computer?

The first digital computer was invented in 1642 by Blaise Pascal. It consisted of numbers entered in dials but, it could only add. However in 1671 a computer was invented that was eventually-42, but the invention was "reduced to practice" no later than 1939. The ENIAC invention was later derived from this work, thus invalidating the ENIAC patent, and the British Colossus computer was not invented

Who is smarter a computer or a human being and why?

is capable of imagination. Thus the Human brain is still the overall winner in many fields when it compared with the computer....A human being is smarter because we are the ones who created/invented, humans have an enormous advantage. Humans think original thoughts every day. The evidence of these thoughts is in the inventions, art and books all around us. The computer is one such invention
