who was the frist man invented computer?

Answer 1

The earliest computer known is the Antikythera Machine, a mechanical device that computed the positions of the astrological signs on any given date, past or future. It was discovered in an ancient shipwreck in the Mediterranean Sea and dates to approximately 250 BC. The designer/builder is not known, but because of its similarity to other mechanical devices known to have been designed by Archimedes, it is probably his work.

The difference engine

The first of these devices was conceived in 1786 by J. H. Mueller. It was never built.

Difference engines were forgotten and then rediscovered in 1822 by Charles Babbage. This machine used the decimal numbers system and was powered by cranking a handle. The British government first financed the project but then later cut off support. Babbage went on to design his much more general analytical engine but later returned and produced an improved design (his "Difference Engine No. 2") between 1847 and 1849.

It was Konrad Zuse....he invented the z1, z2, z3, z4 and other ones. the z3 was the first fully functional program-controlled electromaechanical digital computer in the world-completed in 1941. Charles Babbage just made a mechanical computing machine.

Answer 2

Many say the first computer is the "difference engine." The first of these devices was conceived in 1786 by J. H. Mueller. It was never built.

If you mean Electronic Computer, It was a man called Alan Turing from Cambridge UK, Who was draughted in to Bletchley park secret base where they worked at cracking the WW2 enigma codes that the Germans used every day. The Germans changed their Enigma machines to a four digit code maker. However, Because what went on at Bletchley Park the computer made from thousands of valves was kept top secret up untill recently. The computer, named Colossus was smashed to peices at the end of the war. The buildings have now been restored as a tourist centre.

The first computer, or "modern computer" was invented in World War II by a German engineer, Konrad Zuse in 1941 called the Z3. More Info: "I can add some authenticity to this answer. My grandfather was a rocket scientist on Werner Von Braun's team during WWII. He was the technician who actually built the computer described above. It was an analog computer designed to simulate the guidance system for the rockets. It was built in secret because the higher-ups had not given their permission for this project

Answer 3

The first programmable computer was designed by Charles Babbage in the early 18th Century. The first electronic computer was built in 1943 by a Thomas Flowers, a Post Office Engineer working for the Bletchley Park decyphering team.

Answer 4

Charles Babbage designed a mechanical computer in the 1800s but it wasn't built until 2000!. The electronic computer was first built in the 50's

Answer 5

The first man who invented computer was J.H.Mueller.

Answer 6

J.H.Mueller I THINK!? But having said that the Chinese invented the ABACUS, could that not be an computer of sorts?

Answer 7

A guy called Babbage invented it

Answer 8

It was a total team effort by the US government in the 1950s.
