Mesopotamians, in what is now modern-day Iraq, around
2700 to 2300 BC. The earliest known evidence of an abacus is
a clay tablet found in Mesopotamia that dates back to 2400
BC.

calculates products and quotients of numbers. Napier also
coined the word "rabdology" for his method, which is based
on lattice multiplication.
2. Napier is also known for discovering logarithms and
popularizing the use of the decimal point in mathematics and
arithmetic.

Evolution of Computer – Pascaline 1 – Introduction about Computer

1. Blaise Pascal, a French mathematician and philosopher,


invented the Pascaline between 1642 and 1644. The Pascaline
was one of the first mechanical devices used for arithmetic
calculations.
2. Pascal was inspired to develop a calculator by the arithmetical
calculations required by his father's work as a tax supervisor.
It could only perform addition and subtraction, with numbers
being entered by manipulating its dials.

Evolution of Computer – Leibniz Wheel 1 – Introduction about Computer

1. Gottfried Wilhelm Leibniz invented the Leibniz wheel, also


known as the Leibniz calculator or stepped reckoner, around
1672 and completed it in 1694. The name comes from the
German term for its operating mechanism, Staffelwalze,
which means "stepped drum".
2. The Leibniz wheel is a mechanical calculator that is
considered a technical marvel of its time and is considered
one of the most precious cultural treasures of the 17th
century.

Evolution of Computer – Mark I 1 – Introduction about Computer

1. Howard Hathaway Aiken (1900-1973) was the original


conceptual designer behind the Harvard Mark I computer.
Aiken was a Harvard professor and physicist who designed
the Mark I in the late 1930s and early 1940s. The Mark I was
the first large-scale digital calculator and the first to automate
complex calculations.
2. The Mark I's main advantage was that it was fully automatic
and didn't require human intervention once it started. It was
also more reliable than early electronic computers.

Evolution of Computer – Census Machine 1 – Introduction about Computer

1. Herman Hollerith invented the tabulating machine in the


1880s to help process data for the 1890 U.S. Census. The
machine was a counting machine that kept track of the
number of punched holes in cards. It used electrically-
operated components to capture and process census data by
"reading" holes on paper punch cards.
2. Hollerith's machine made adding census totals hundreds of
times faster than by hand.

English mathematician and computer pioneer, first described
the Analytical Engine in 1837. He worked on the engine until
his death in 1871.
2. The Analytical Engine was a mechanical digital computer that
was completely program-controlled and required no human
intervention.

Evolution of Computer – Jacquard Loom 1 – Introduction about Computer

1. Joseph-Marie Jacquard (1752 - 1834) invented the Jacquard


loom, which is the basis for modern automatic looms. The
loom was developed between 1801 and 1806.
2. The Jacquard loom is considered a technological
advancement that sparked the automation of the weaving
industry. The loom's mechanism uses thousands of punch
cards that are laced together to simplify the weaving of
complex textiles. Each row of punched holes corresponds to a
row of the textile pattern.
