Charles Babbage
The 'Difference Engine' - it was a mechanical calculator.
The computers invented by Charles Babbage were the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine. Neither was finished in his lifetime but gave him fame as a computer pioneer.
He invented the Difference Engine between 1847 and 1849, a forerunner to modern computers. He is sometimes regarded as the father of computers. He also invented a machine called the Analytical Engine.
Charles Babbage invented the concept of a programmable mechanical computer known as the Analytical Engine. He conceived this invention in the early 1830s. Although Babbage was unable to complete the construction of the Analytical Engine during his lifetime, his work laid the foundation for the development of modern computers.

The Analytical Engine and The Difference Engine
Charles Babbage, an English mathematician, suggested in 1822 that a mechanical machine could do calculations, just like our modern computers and calculators. He began working on the Difference Engine. Then he got a better idea for the Analytical Engine and worked on it from 1842. He never really finished it properly.
Babbage did not invent the typewriter - he invented the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine: mechanical mathematical processors. His purpose in designing those was to simplify and improve the accuracy of complex, repetitive arithmetic operations.

no he did not but he did invent the computer difference engine number 1, number 2 and the analytical engine
