Was a Microcomputer part of the first generation?
no, first generation computers used vacuum tubes.
When computers become more a part of everyday life people believe that computer literacy is vital to success?
computers have become a vital part of everyday life
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).
What was the second generation computer size?
Transistorized computers varied in size, the smallest being about the size of an office desk, the largest took up most of a room.
How a digital computer work.how can we define a digital computer and analog cmputer?
Digital computers work with exact discretely coded representations of numbers.Analog computers work with approximate continuous representations of numbers.Hybrid computers are computers that are part digital part analog.I have used all three types, each has advantages.
Was a Microcomputer part of the first generation?
no, first generation computers used vacuum tubes.
What is the meaning of ESDAC in first generation computers?
Nothing, it is EDSAC not ESDAC. Electronic Delay Storage Automatic Calculator. The delay storage part of the name referred to its use of mercury acoustic wave delay lines for memory store.
What is grace Murray hopper known for?
She was one of the first programmers of one of the first computers. See the related link for more information.
Where is the boot routine stored on microcomputers?
The boot routine is stored in the memory assembly on microcomputers. The Direct Memory Access chip was an important part of the original IBM PC and has become an essential component of modern computer systems.
Why computers are usefull and harmfull now a days?
Useful because they allow you to communicate with others quickly and easily. Harmful because they occupy the a large part of the lives of the current generation. ~I
Explain the differences between the computers of today and the computers 10 years ago?
Computers in the form of personal desktop computers, laptops and tablets have become such an important part of everyday living that it can be difficult to remember a time when they did not exist. In reality, computers as they are known and used today are still relatively new. Although computers have technically been in use since the abacus approximately 5000 years ago, it is modern computers that have had the greatest and most profound effect on society. The first full-sized digital computer in history was developed in 1944. Called the Mark I, this computer was used only for calculations and weighed five tons. Despite its size and limited ability it was the first of many that would start off generations of computer development and growth. First Generation Computers First generation computers bore little resemblance to computers of today, either in appearance or performance. The first generation of computers took place from 1940 to 1956 and was extremely large in size. The inner workings of the computers at that time were unsophisticated. These early machines required magnetic drums for memory and vacuum tubes that worked as switches and amplifiers. It was the vacuum tubes that were mainly responsible for the large size of the machines and the massive amounts of heat that they released. These computers produced so much heat that they regularly overheated despite large cooling units. First generation computers also used a very basic programming language that is referred to as machine language. Second Generation Computers The second generation (from 1956 to 1963) of computers managed to do away with vacuum tubes in lieu of transistors. This allowed them to use less electricity and generate less heat. Second generation computers were also significantly faster than their predecessors. Another significant change was in the size of the computers, which were smaller. Transistor computers also developed core memory which they used alongside magnetic storage. Third Generation Computers From 1964 to 1971 computers went through a significant change in terms of speed, courtesy of integrated circuits. Integrated circuits, or semiconductor chips, were large numbers of miniature transistors packed on silicon chips. This not only increased the speed of computers but also made them smaller, more powerful, and less expensive. In addition, instead of the punch cards and the printouts of previous systems, keyboards and monitors were now allowing people to interact with computing machines. Fourth Generation Computers The changes with the greatest impact occurred in the years from 1971 to 2010. During this time technology developed to a point where manufacturers could place millions of transistors on a single circuit chip. This was called monolithic integrated circuit technology. It also heralded the invention of the Intel 4004 chip which was the first microprocessor to become commercially available in 1971. This invention led to the dawn of the personal computer industry. By the mid-70s, personal computers such as the Altair 8800 became available to the public in the form of kits and required assembly. By the late 70s and early 80s assembled personal computers for home use, such as the Commodore Pet, Apple II and the first IBM computer, were making their way onto the market. Personal computers and their ability to create networks eventually would lead to the Internet in the early 1990s. The fourth generation of computers also saw the creation of even smaller computers including laptops and hand-held devices. Graphical user interface, or GUI, was also invented during this time. Computer memory and storage also went through major improvements, with an increase in storage capacity and speed. The Fifth Generation of Computers In the future, computer users can expect even faster and more advanced computer technology. Computers continue to develop into advanced forms of technology. Fifth generation computing has yet to be truly defined, as there are numerous paths that technology is taking toward the future of computer development. For instance, research is ongoing in the fields of nanotechnology, artificial intelligence, as well as quantum computation.

What is a sentence for spontaneous generation?
We're part of such a spontaneous generation!
Is radio an example of computer?
Yes, these things can be considered a computer. And they can also store and process data. Explanation: Headphones, radios, dishwashers, and remote controls are all computers because they all have some sort of logic board inside the device to control what it does.
