How many computers did Konrad Zuse make?

By 1967, the Zuse KG had built a total of 251 computers.


Who made the computer when did they make it and why did they make it?

The first programmable computer was created by Konrad Zuse and was completed in 1938. Zuse worked as a design engineer in an aircraft factory and found the numerous routine calculations required to be boring. His dream of having a machine that could perform these routine calculations, led him to create the first programmable computer.


What was the first programmable computer in World War 2?

the first digital programable computer was mady by USA in 1945 adn it was called ENIAC.The first programmable, fully automatic computer was the German Z3, built by Konrad Zuse in 1941. The Z3 was a Turing-complete computer, built using mechanical relays rather than vacuum tubes, and stored programs and data on punched film. It was used by the German Aircraft Research Institute to run analyses on wing flutter. Zuse asked for funding to replace the relays with electrical switches, but the German government turned him down because the project was not considered "war-important."Zuse went on to build a more advanced version of this computer, the Z4, which was completed days before World War II ended. After the war, Zuse went on to found a computer development company, Zuse KG, which was sold to Siemens in 1967.


How much did computers cost in 1936?

The first computer was built in 1936 by Konrad Zuse. This "computer" was a binary calculator called the "Z1". He used it to calculate arithmetic and develop new calculators. Like the price of all new technology, the first computer's value is hard to determine. How would you price the predecessor of all modern IT technology? Most of the materials used to make the Z1 was donated, so even the cost of material cannot be determined. The Z1 was not for sale, and no computers could be bought in 1936.


What year was first computer made?

Charles Babbage designed a programmable mechanical computer that he called "The Analytical Engine" in 1837 but it was never built.In May 1941, Konrad Zuse then built an electromechanical "Z machine" known as the Z3 that was capable of binary math, floating point operations, and some measure of programmability. Konrad Zuse is also known for starting the first computer company in 1946.The first digital computer is usually considered ENIAC which came in 1946. It was the first digital computer that could be reprogrammed as needed. ENIAC was built to calculate the artillery firing tables for the Ballistic Research Laboratory of the United States.ENIAC contained 17,468 vacuum tubes, 7,200 crystal diodes, 1500 relays, 70,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors, and 5-million hand-soldered joints to weigh in at 27 tons.The MODERN computerThe modern computer was designed by John von Neumann whos architecture could be implimented to create a stored-program digital computer. That is, a computer with RAM, a CPU, and a programmable input. This was a huge step over systems like ENIAC that had to be rewired to make changes.The first working von Neumann machine was the Manchester "Baby", or Small-Scale Experimental Machine, built in 1948.


Who was the first computer company to make a commercial computer?

It depends on your definition of "computer"; there were many milestones. Most of the early electronic computers were not developed by companies, but rather by research organizations.In the 17th century, several people invented calculating machines.In 1833, Charles Babbage invented a complex, programmable calculating machine.In 1941, Konrad Zuse and his company Zuse Apparatebau, developed (in secret) an electronic, software-programmable computer.In 1943, the first Colossus computer was developed (in secret) by Tommy Flowers at the Post Office Research Station in London. These computers were used to crack German military codes.In 1944, the Mark I was developed by Harvard University and IBM. It was software-programmable, but lacked a conditional branch instruction.In 1946, construction of the ENIAC computer was completed at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering at the University of Pennsylvania. This was the first computer to be "Turing-complete", a mathematical criterion for generality. It was not, however, entirely software programmable.The first commercial computer was the Ferranti Mark 1, built by Ferranti International in the UK, and delivered to University of Manchester in 1951.

Who is known as the father of modern digital computers and why?

Charles Babbage was considered to be the father of computing after his invention and concept of the Analytical Engine in 1837. The Analytical Engine contained an Arithmetic Logic Unit (ALU), basic flow control, and integrated memory; hailed as the first general-purpose computer concept.

What was the first window operating system?

Probably the Xerox one for their experimental prototype Alto computer workstation. That inspired Jobs and Wozniac of Apple to make the one on the Lisa, then the Macintosh.


What tragic accident happened to the very first computer ever made?

Accident? Accident?If you mean Konrad Zuse's Z3, it was blown up in a WW2 allied bombing raid.If you mean John Vincent Atanasof's ABC it was cut in little pieces because it was too big to fit through a doorway when the university needed to move it to make room for more classrooms.If you mean the Colossus cryptanalytic machines at Bleechley, Winston Churchill ordered them smashed into pieces no bigger than a man's fist for security.If you mean Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, it died of no funding and no interest in its abilities. Human computers worked just fine and didn't need the temperamental/argumentative/unreliable Babbage to make them work.
