Are fourth generation computers the first to use pictures?

yes


How was technology use to make the computer?

Different computers at different times used whatever technologies were available at that time.The Charles Babbage analytical engine (digital, mechanical) was based on gears and cams.The MIT differential analyzer (analog, mechanical) was based on glass disk and ball integrator technology.The Atanasoff-Berry Computer (digital, mostly electronic) was based on vacuum tubes, capacitors, and a drive motor for timing.The Harvard Mark 1 (digital, electromechanical) used mechanical counters, clutches, relays, etc.The Colossus (digital, electronic, code breaking) was based on vacuum tubes, and very high speed paper tape.The ENIAC (digital, electronic) was based on vacuum tubes.First generation digital computers were based on vacuum tubes and sometimes germanium point contact diodes.Second generation digital computers were based on bipolar junction transistors (initially germanium then silicon).Third generation digital computers were based on silicon integrated circuits (some high speed computers of this generation used gallium arsenide integrated circuits).Fourth generation digital computers were based on silicon microprocessor integrated circuits.Some experimental computers have been built using optical technology.etc.


What are the differences between fourth and fifth generation of computer?

4th generation of computers are acts as user define computers but 5th generation computers are act as automatic computers by means it doing its works automatically


You want to have pictures of 5 generation of computers?

Sure thing, honey! First up, we've got the first generation with those big ol' vacuum tube computers. Then we move on to the second generation with transistor computers, followed by the third generation with integrated circuit computers. Next up is the fourth generation with microprocessor computers, and finally, we've got the fifth generation with artificial intelligence computers. Happy picture hunting!


What is the evolution of fourth generation of computers till present?

The evolution of fourth generation of computer till date was the use of microchips as the memory capacity and this has helped in manufacturing of computer till date.

What do mean by generation of computers?

It means that with each so-called "generation", there was a major breakthrough in computers. Terms such as "fourth generation" or "fifth generation" are not clearly defined, especially for the later generations.


What was the computer made of?

Several early digital computers were made of electromechanical devices similar to those used to build automatic dial telephone exchanges used at the time. First generation digital computers were made of vacuum tubes. Second generation digital computers were made of discrete transistors (most used germanium transistors but later some silicon transistors). Third generation digital computers were made of (hybrid, SSI, MSI, LSI) silicon integrated circuits. Fourth generation digital computers are made of microprocessors and other (VLSI, ULSI, etc.) silicon integrated circuits.
