The first electronic computer, the Atanasoff Berry Computer, was invented because Doctor John Vincent Atanasoff at the University of Iowa in Ames Iowa had too many large difficult to solve systems of simultaneous equations. The machine was invented one night in a bar in Indiana where Atanasoff had gone to get away and the ideas started coming together. It was built between 1939 and 1942. Atanasoff designed it to solve systems of simultaneous equations of up to 29 variables, because this would handle most of his problems without having to make the machine too big (it came out about the size of an office desk).

However it created the new task of endless, tedious, error-prone programming and debugging.
Sometimes seems like even tradeoff...

∙ 12y agoThe Computer was invented to make life so much better so that we can accomplish normal day things just a lot faster so that is why the computer was invented. Dont ask that question again it was a bad one.

The world's first general-purpose electronic computer in 1946?
ENIAC, in in 1946
Where was the computer invented in?
Z3, an electromechanical programmable computer was invented in Berlin. ENIAC, the first general-purpose electronic computer was invented at the University of Pennsylvania.
Who was that inventor name of the electronic general purpose computer?
The inventor of the electronic general purpose computer is widely acknowledged to be Alan Turing. Turing conceptualized the idea of a universal computing machine and played a crucial role in the development of the first electronic computer, the Colossus, during World War II. His theoretical work also laid the foundation for modern computer science.
