The Analytical Engine was developed by Charles Babbage in England during the 1830s. Although it was never completed, the design represented a significant advancement in computing concepts, incorporating elements like an arithmetic logic unit, control flow through conditional branching, and memory. Babbage's work laid the foundation for modern computing, though the machine itself was never built during his lifetime.
The Difference Engine and Analytical Engine were developed by the British mathematician and inventor Charles Babbage. The Difference Engine, designed to compute polynomial functions, was conceived in the early 1820s, while the more advanced Analytical Engine, which featured concepts of programmability and data storage, was designed in the 1830s. Although neither machine was completed during Babbage's lifetime, his ideas laid the groundwork for modern computing.

An analytical engine is a mechanical general-purpose computer which was designed and envisaged by Charles Babbage, but never built.
The Analytical Engine, designed by Charles Babbage, was conceptualized in the 1830s, with its designs being developed between 1837 and 1843. However, it was never completed during Babbage's lifetime. The machine is considered one of the first designs for a general-purpose computer, laying the groundwork for future advancements in computing.

the Analytical Engine - an engine created by Ada Byron (the Lady Lovelace) and a person named Babbage - Ada suggested to Babbage writing a plan for how the engine might calculate Bernoulli numbers. This plan, is now regarded as the first "computer program." A software language developed by the U.S. Department of Defense was named "Ada" in her honor in 1979
