THE FIRST CALCULATING DEVICES
Let us take a look at the history of computers that we know today. The very first calculating device used was the ten fingers of a man's hands. This, in fact, is why today; we still count in tens and multiples of tens.
Then the abacus was invented. People went on using some form of abacus well into the 16th century, and it is still being used in some parts of the world because it can be understood without knowing how to read.
During the 17th and 18th centuries many people tried to find easy ways of calculating. J.Napier, a Scotsman, invented a mechanical way of multiplying and dividing, which ,is now the modern slide rule works. Henry Briggs used Napier's ideas to produce logarithm tables which all mathematicians use today.
Calculus, another branch of mathematics, was independently invented by both Sir Isaak Newton, an Englishman, and Leibnitz, a German mathematician. The first real calculating machine appeared in 1820 as the result of several people's experiments.
In 1830 Charles Babbage, a gifted English mathematician, proposed. to build a general-purpose problem-solving machine that he called "the analytical engine". This machine, which Babbage showed at the Paris Exhibition in 1855, was an attempt to cut out the human being altogether, except for providing the machine with the necessary facts about the problem to be solved. He never finished this work, but many of his ideas were the basis for building today's computers.
Bу the early part of the twentieth century electromechanical machines had been developed and were used for business data processing. Dr. Herman Hollerith, a young statistician from the US Census Bureau successfully tabulated the 1890 census. Hollerith invented a means of coding the data by punching holes into cards. Hе built one machine to punch the holes and others to tabulate the collected data. Later Hollerith left the Census Bureau and established his own tabulating machine соmрапу. Through a series of merges the company eventually became the IBM Corporation.
Until the middle of the twentieth century machines designed to manipulate punched card data were widely used for business data processing. These early electromechanical data processors were called unit record machines because each punched card contained a unit of data.
In the mid - 1940s electronic computers were developed to perform calculations for military and scientific purposes. Вy the end of the 1960s commercial models of these computers were widely used for both scientific computation and business data processing. Initially these computers accepted their input data from punched cards. Вy the late 1970s punched cards had been almost universally replaced by keyboard terminals. Since that time advances in science have led to the proliferation of com¬puters throughout our society, and the past is but the prologue that gives us a glimpse of the future.

ПЕРВЫЙ РАСЧЕТ УСТРОЙСТВА Препятствуйте нам Взгляните на истории компьютеров, которые мы знаем сегодня. Первый расчет устройство, используемое было десять пальцев рук человека. В самом деле, это почему сегодня; Мы по-прежнему рассчитывать в десятки и кратные десятков. Затем была изобретена abacus. Люди пошли на использование той или иной форме счеты в XVI веке, и он все еще используется в некоторых частях мира, потому что он может пониматься не зная, как читать. В XVII и XVIII веках многие люди пытались найти простых способа расчета. J.Napier, шотландец, изобрел механический способ умножения и деления, который в настоящее время современные слайд правило работает. Генри Бриггс использовал в Napier идеи производить логарифм таблицы, которые сегодня используют все математиков. Исчисление, другой ветви математики, самостоятельно был изобретен как сэр Исаак Ньютон, англичанин и Лейбниц, немецкий математик. Первый реальный вычислительная машина появилась в 1820 году в результате экспериментов несколько человек. В 1830 году Чарльз Бэббидж, одаренных английский математик, предложил. для построения общего назначения проблем машина что он назвал «аналитические двигатель». Эта машина, которая Бэббиджа показал на выставке в Париже в 1855 году, была предпринята попытка вырезать человека вообще, за исключением предоставления машины с необходимыми фактами о проблема должна быть решена. Он никогда не закончил эту работу, но многие из его идей были основой для строительства современных компьютеров.
