👩‍💻" First Generation of Computer?"👩‍💻



The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) and UNIVAC I (Universal Automatic Computer) were two significant examples of the first generation of Computers,  which were created in the 1940s and 1950s. huge, vacuum tube-based, and mostly employed in the military and sciences, these machines were huge. 






"The earliest Computers"


Several distinctive characteristics of first-generation computers  include:


 Vacuum Tubes: 

 The main electronic processing and memory components in these computers were vacuum tubes (also known as electron tubes). Vacuum tubes were bulky, delicate and heated up a lot.


 Large Size: 

 Early computers were gigantic, frequently taking up whole rooms or even buildings. The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer),  for instance, occupied a sizable room and weighed about 30 tonnes.


 Limited Programme Storage: 

 To move between various jobs or programmes, they frequently needed to manually rewire the system or make hardware adjustments.


Without the interactive features we have today, these computers largely used batch processing techniques,  where a series of instructions and data were processed collectively as a batch.


Limited Input and Output: 

 Paper tape or punched cards were frequently used for input, and printing was the norm for output.


 Vacuum tubes were prone to burning out,  necessitating a lot of maintenance and downtime.


Low Processing Speed: 

 Compared to modern computers, first-generation computers had comparatively slow processing rates, while being large and complex  for their time.


First-generation computers such as the ENIAC, UNIVAC I, and IBM 701 are notable examples.  These pioneering devices paved the way for the emergence of more sophisticated and compact computers in succeeding generations.

  _____________________________________________      __1._________"Computer Knowledge"______  👩‍💻What is Computer?👩‍💻 See guys today first of all we will know here what is a computer after all? What is called computer? And what is the importance of computer in present times is?  Q.1   What is computer? Ans.  Computer is a device in which data can be input, compiled and used quickly and efficiently,   as well as many external information can also be obtained in this way,    a computer has one or more input devices (input devices), compilation devices (storeton devices) and a technical unit (processing unit) for the use of all of them.   And in simple words,   a computer is a machine that is used for various types of logical calculations that accepts data, stores it,    processes it according to instructions and provides us with the output. And see guys at present, computer has become an important pa...
