when and where was the first computer invented?

Answer 1

the first type of computer was a calculator produced in 1645 by Blaise Pascal. In 1822 Charles Babbage built his Difference engine. The first electronic computer was produced in 1939 by J V Atanasoff. These were all basically a variation of calculators. 1971 was the first microprocessor the intel 4004 and the first modern pc for use in the home was produced in 1975 and called Altair 8800.

Answer 2

In 1801, Joseph Marie Jacquard made an improvement to the textile loom that used a series of punched paper cards as a template to allow his loom to weave intricate patterns automatically. The resulting Jacquard loom was an important step in the development of computers because the use of punched cards to define woven patterns can be viewed as an early, albeit limited, form of programmability.

In 1837, Charles Babbage was the first to conceptualize and design a fully programmable mechanical computer that he called "The Analytical Engine".[2] Due to limited finance, and an inability to resist tinkering with the design, Babbage never actually built his Analytical Engine.[1]

Answer 3

The first computer ever made was Atanasoff Berry Computer (ABC). The Atanasoff-Berry Computer was the world's first electronic digital computer, according to a 1973 court ruling by US Federal Judge Earl R. Larson. I

t was built by John Vincent Atanasoff and Clifford Berry at Iowa State University during the period of 1937 to 1942. The new device incorporated several major innovations in computing, including the use of binary arithmetic, regenerative memory, parallel processing, and separation of memory and computing functions. The Atanasoff-Berry ruling ultimately superceded and invalidated the ENIAC patent of Mauchly and Eckert and named John Vincent Atanasoff the inventor of the electronic digital computer.

Answer 4

It really depends upon how you define the word computer. Some say that Colossus, which was built during WWII for breaking the Enigma code was the first computer, but others argue that the Difference Engine (which was never built) was the first.
