1944 Construction on it started in 1943 and it was unveiled in 1946. Hope this helps!
ENIAC
It was developed by John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert.
Unknown. It was developed in the ENIAC project in WW2 but nobody recorded who first came up with it. ENIAC did not use it.
what was eniac?
No, the ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) is not used today. It was one of the first general-purpose electronic digital computers, developed in the 1940s, and has since been retired. Modern computing technology has vastly surpassed the capabilities of the ENIAC, making it obsolete. However, it remains historically significant as a pioneering achievement in computer science.
The ENIAC (Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer) was created at the University of Pennsylvania. Specifically, it was developed at the Moore School of Electrical Engineering between 1943 and 1945. The project was initiated by researchers John W. Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert.
The ENIAC has 17,468 vacuum tubes. These tubes were the first technology that made computers function. Modern computers do not use this technology.

ENIAC was never sold, it was built to order on a cost plus wartime Army contract. The original estimated cost to build ENIAC in the contract was roughly $50,000, however by the time it was finished the final cost was over $500,000. About a year after completion, ENIAC was dissembled and shipped to the BRL Aberdeen where it was used for about a decade. The Army owned it from the day the contract was signed until it was retired.
The first electronic computer was invented in 1946 at the University of Pennsylvania. It is called ENIAC.
The ENIAC computer was finished in November, 1945.
