In a variety of ways. As memory technology was the most difficult part of a computer to design, it was not obvious what might be the best way to go. There were nearly as many different types of memory tried as there were computers built between 1946 and 1951. Some of these are:
- delay lines (various technologies)
- rotating magnetic drums
- williams-killburn CRTs
- selectron tubes
- flood-gun storage CRTs
- etc.
Eventually ferrite core magnetic memory replaced almost all other memory types and ruled until the early 1970s, when solid state memory replaced it.

∙ 11y agoMany different things, depending on the computer and its designers:
- Williams tube CRT, DRAM
- Delay lines, sequential recirculating
- Selectron tube, SRAM
- Flood gun CRT, SRAM
- Magnetic drum, sequential recirculating
- Magnetic ferrite core, NOVRAM
- etc.
Eventually magnetic ferrite core took over the market except in some very low cost machines, which continued using magnetostrictive wire delay lines into the second generation.

Why do people have a passwordBecause if they did not others will try to hack in to peoples computers?
If computers were not password protected, anyone who could use it and see any information you had stored.
Do computers know everthing?
Computers have no knowledge and don't know anything, per se. A computer is a storage device of information that can be accesed by the user. All the information that is stored in computors is input by human beings.
What does data mean for example?
Data is the Information stored on Computers. Data makes up the files on the computer you use.
