The first known analog computer is the antikythera mechanism. It was found underwater in 1900. It is believed to have been made prior to 100BC. Inventor unknown.

Is there computers in the 1940s?
No I don't think that there were computers in the 1940's TV's just started in the 50's if there were computers (which I highly doubt) thaey wouldn't be anything like today's computers. A little bit of searching will show that there were primitive computers. They were mostly mechanical analog computers rather than electronic digital devices like we have today. They were mostly used for computing bomb and rocket trajectories. Some very early electronic computers were built in England and the U.S. to help decode encrypted Axis messages.
When was computer made?
Analog computers were first made in the late 1920s, Digital computers were first made in the early 1940s.
When and why was the first computer invented?
various business, engineering, and scientific problems in the 1930s and 1940s (including problems raised in WW2) became too large and too time consuming to handle by conventional means, so techniques to automate their solutions were sought. many machines were designed and built: mechanical and electronic analog computers, mechanical and electronic digital computers, even hybrid computers (part digital part analog).
Who invented computor?
the first computer was created by CHARLES BABBAGE and it was known as the analog computer....
Are most computers analog machines?
No, most computers today are digital machines. Digital computers operate using discrete binary data, represented as 0s and 1s. Analog computers, on the other hand, manipulate continuous physical quantities such as voltage, current, or mechanical motion. While analog computers were used in the past, the vast majority of computers in use today are digital.
When was the first Universal Power Supply Invented?
The first power supply was invented by Thomas Edison. It is unknown when exactly the first universal power supply for computers was invented.
Which year was a computer first used?
digital computers were first used in 1942 analog computers were first used in about 100BC

Where was the first analog computer invented?
in ure booty
When was the first round analog clock invented?
ages ago
What do electronic computer manufacturers produce?
Included in this industry are digital computers, analog computers, and hybrid digital/analog computers.
When were computers first found?
Computers were invented in the early to mid 1940s.
What day was it when the first computer was invented?
That is very hard to say as it has many inventors and has been invented independently at many times and many places.Many different computers (analog, mechanical) have been invented as far back as before 100BC.Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine (digital, mechanical) was invented in 1840s but never built as he could not get funding to even begin work.Vanevar Bush's Differential Analyzer (analog, electromechanical) was invented and built in 1930s.John Vincent Atanasoff's ABC (digital, electronic) was invented in 1937, finished and working in early 1942, its design could easily have become the baseline for all future computers had not WW2 interrupted.Konrad Zuse's Z3 (digital, electromechanical) was invented in 1941.Many different computers (analog, electromechanical) were invented in the 1930s and 1940s.John Mauchly & J. Presper Eckert invented ENIAC (digital, electronic) for the Army in 1942, finished and working in late 1945. Used to run a simulation of Edward Teller's "Classical Super" hydrogen bomb design in December 1945 through January 1946 (the simulation showed that that design could not be made to work, the problem being excessive radiation heat loss). Revealed to the public in February 1946. Architectural dead end computer.Many different computers (analog, electronic) were invented in the 1940s through 1960s (including several hybrid aka analog/digital systems).Digital Differential Analyzers (DDA) were invented in about 1949, they could solve differential equations with much greater accuracy than analog computers could and much faster than digital computers could (digital, electronic). However like most analog computers and ENIAC they were hard to reprogram for entirely new applications.Computers took off so fast in the 1950s and later it is almost impossible to tabulate inventions associated with them.

Who invented computers and what year?
Bob the builder invented the computers when santas reindeers nose first turned red.
Who invented the analog stick?
In 1982 Atari released their first controller with a potentiometer-based analog stick for their Atari 5200 home console.
