Want this question answered?
no, second generation. third generation computers used ICs.
Differentiate between third generation of computers and fourth generation?"
The third generation of computers started in 1964 through 1971.
The advantages of the third generation computers are:1. faster2. smaller3. uses less energy4. uses high level programming5. cheaper7. lower maintenance costthe disadvantages are:1. still require air conditioning
Because the first, second, and third generation computers were also digital computers.
Third Generation
The first minicomputers were second generation computers, but the most well known minicomputers were third generation computers.
No one person.
Intergrated circuits
Third Generation Computers were made out of Integrated Circuits and Fourth Generation Computers are made of Microprocessors.
Programming computers. That is what they were designed for.
this is generally considered to have happened in the 1970s or 1980s. however for certain special types of computers they are still third generation computers, because they contain no microprocessor(s), instead they are composed of many high density advanced random logic integrated circuits. so the third generation has still not completely ended.
