Abacuses, a calculator's predecessor was used as early as 2400 B.C. A German named Wilhelm Schickard invented the first digital mechanical calculator in 1623. The first smaller calculators, called comptometers were invented in 1884 by a U. S. citizen named Dorr E. Felt. There were numerous other upgrades after this including one built into a desk, made by the Japanese, but that is all I wish to say.
