They invented the first electronic computer to enable solving multiple simultaneous equations far more quickly than the manual method.

The Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC) was designed and built between 1937 and 194 by John Atanasoff and Clifford Berry at the University of Iowa. It is recognized as the first automatic electronic digital computer.
It was John Vincent Atanasoff and Clifford Berry.

False. The first digital computer, called the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC), was developed by John Atanasoff and Clifford Berry at Iowa State University in the 1930s for the purpose of solving systems of simultaneous equations. It was not specifically developed for conducting the census, although it did play a role in advancing computing technology and paved the way for future computer development.

John Vincent Atanasoff was 34 years old when he invented the ABC in an Illinois bar in the winter of 1937-38. Clifford Edward Berry did not become involved until 1939, he was a graduate student "hired" by Atanasoff to help with final circuit design and assembly.
It was used for a brief time by the statistics department of the university. Atanasoff & Berry were called off to war work elsewhere and abandoned the machine. The university needed more classroom space during the war and finding ABC too large to fit through the door (by an inch or two) cut the machine up and scrapped most of it.
