  • charles babbage

    charles babbage
    Charles Babbage was the first person to create a automatic digital computer. The computer worked by using punched cards so it could be programable. The computer was used for compiled mathematical tables
  • Ada Lovelace

    Ada Lovelace
    Ada Lovelace programmed Charles Babbage's computer by using punched cards. It was still used to compile mathematical tables.
  • Alan turning

    Alan turning
    Alan turning created "the universal Turing machine." The Turing machine worked by reading both the description of the machine to be simulated as well as the input to that machine from its own tape. This computer was used to explore how far a computer can be revolutionized.
  • Mauchly and Eckert

    Mauchly and Eckert
    Mauchly and Eckert created the ENIAC .It worked by using plugboards for communicating instructions to the machine. The computer was used for calculating armillary firing tables.
  • ENIAC programmers

    ENIAC programmers
    They programmed the ENIAC. They used plugboards to help them program this computer. and it was still used to calculate armillary firing tables.
  • Grace hopper

    Grace hopper
    Grace hopper invented the UNIVAC, which is the first all digital computer. it worked using vacuum tubes and state-of-the-art circuits then either printed out or stored on more magnetic tape. it was used for commercial data processing computers.
  • Mark dean

    Mark dean
    Mark dean created the IBM personal computer. The computer was used for entertainment like watching tv and playing video games but also could be used for much more.
