Who invnted a computer?

Answer 1

Source: http://www.cciw.com/content/computer_etymology.html According to David R. Wilton, management consultant and amateur etymologist, the origin and evolution of the word computer is rather straightforward. Computer derives directly from the Latin computus and computare. Both Latin words mean the same as the English verb compute: to determine by mathematical means. Putare means to reckon, and com is an intensifying prefix. An intensifying prefix heightens or stresses, but does not change the meaning of the word it modifies; for example, in the word inflammable, in is an intensifier, and inflammable means easily inflamed.
