  1. Tommy Flowers designed the Colossus computer for Bletchley Park to crack the German High Command teletype cypher called Tunny. Ten machines were built and used from 1944 to 1945. While never used as a general-purpose electronic digital computer analysis of its design later showed it to have full general -purpose capability. The British kept two of these machines running from 1945 into the 1970s to break Soviet teletype cyphers, so they were not declassified until the 1980s and do not appear in most books on the history of computers.
  2. J. Presper Eckert and John Mauchly designed the ENIAC for the US Army Ballistics Research Laboratory. One machine was built in 1945. It was designed to be general-purpose and its first real program was to simulate Edward Teller's original hydrogen bomb design called the Classical Super. This job took 2 months to run (December 1945 and January 1946), after which ENIAC was declassified and demonstrated to the public in February 1946 making it the first general-purpose electronic digital computer known to the public.
