Charles Babbage, an English mathematician, suggested in 1822 that a mechanical machine could do calculations, just like our modern computers and calculators. He began working on the Difference Engine. Then he got a better idea for the Analytical Engine and worked on it from 1842.
He never really finished it properly.

What was the name of the computer that charles Babbage invented?
The 'Difference Engine' - it was a mechanical calculator.
When was the first computer every invented?
Charles Babbage invented the first computer, the mechanical Analytical Engine, in the mid 1830s. However he was never able to get support or funding to build it.
How could Charles Baggage invent the electronic computer if he was born in 1791 and it was invented in 1641?
The electronic computer was not invented in 1641, there was no electronics in 1641. The electronic computer was invented in the 1940s. Charles Babbage did invent the programmable digital computer, the Analytical Engine, but it was mechanical not electronic.
What computer was invented in 1830?
at roughly that time Charles Babbage invented the Analytical Engine, but it turned out to be beyond his ability to build for a complex variety of reasons.
When was the computer invemted and where?
Because the definitions of the word 'computer' vary, it is hard for historians to concur on when and where the computer invented. Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, the first electromechanical computer, was created in 1837 in England.
In 1830 the first design of an antylitical engine for the computer was invented by who?
Charles Babbage. there are other questions on this English mathematician and computer inventor. it was called an analytical engine, not how you spelled it
Who invented the computer ROM chips?
1834Charles Babbage begins build his "Analytical Engine", precursor to the computer. It uses read-only memory in the form of punch cards.
Who is the father modern computer?
the father of the modern computer was charles babbage , who invented the "analytical machine"
Named the computers invented by Charles Cabbage?
The computers invented by Charles Babbage were the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine. Neither was finished in his lifetime but gave him fame as a computer pioneer.
Who invented programmable digital computer?
Charles Babbage, but he never built it. It was called the Analytical Engine, was all mechanical, and was to be powered by a steam engine.
What year was computers made who invented it?
In the year 1837, Charles Babbage was the first to think about something that would function like a computer and ended up designing a programmable mechanical computer that he called "The Analytical Engine" but because of limited finance, and an the inability to stop himself from trying to upgrade it and find some innovation with the design, Babbage could never actually built his Analytical Engine.
Did Charles Babbage designed the Analytical Engine?
Well... sort of. He invented a machine that was similar to the computer; an information keeper and answerer, the forerunner to the computer. So in a way, yes and no! Hope this answers your question! :)
