How is the electronic computer different from the first computer?
Electronic computer is may faster and smaller than the first developed computer. Electronic computers today uses small electronic devices and integrated circuits. Long time ago they use vacuum tubes which are huge.

Oh yes - and for several generations after that. ENIAC, the first mainframe computer, had to be kept in a room with very heavy air conditioning (about 60 degrees) because of the heat generated by all the vacuum tubes.
Notes on different generation of computer?
generations of computersThere are actually FIVE generations of computers.The first generation of electronic computers were made of vacuum tubes and they were big as a room.
How many vacuum tubes are in the Univac I computer?
It used 5200 vacuum tubes.
