Zeroth generation (1642-1946)
It started with the invention of pascaline by Blaise Pascal in the year 1642! Pascaline was the first mechanical computing device.
Then in 1822, Charles Babbage invented Difference Engine to compute tables for naval navigation.
Babbage designed the first digital computer called Analytical Engine in 1834 but could not make it work. It had all the parts of a modern computer. The store (memory unit), mill (computational unit), and punched card as input and output.
Then came the Tabulating machine by Herman Hollerith in 1880 for counting US census which was followed by invention of Mark I and II by Howard Eiken in 1944, which was the first US general purpose electro-mechanical computer.

What are zero generation computers?
zero generation computers are mainly those computers that are mechanical. one example is the abacus.
5 difference of 4th generation of computer and 5th generation of computer?
This is hard to answer, because there is no industry standard for what a 'generation' is. It is entirely subjective. You will need to define a 'generation' before a comparison is given. IE, there are 3 generations of AMD Phenom II processor, and over 70 generations of AMD processors. There are five major generations in processor bitrate. There are over 400 generations of individual progressments in major computer technology. There are nearly 50 different generations of individual architecture design.
