It discusses the key objectives of understanding computers such as defining what they are, how they function, their classifications and uses. It then covers the history from ancient calculating devices like the abacus, through early mechanical computers in the 1600-1800s, to electric tabulating machines and calculators in the late 1800s-early 1900s. The document outlines the development of programmable computers in the 1940s including ENIAC, the first general purpose computer, and the transition to transistors in the late 1940s.
Introduction to Computer
The document discusses the evolution of computers from early mechanical calculating devices like the abacus to modern electronic digital computers. It outlines the key developments from the 1800s to present, including Babbage's analytical engine, the first programmable computers like ENIAC and UNIVAC, and the five generations of computers defined by changes in hardware technology. It also describes the basic characteristics of computers such as their speed, accuracy, ability to store and process vast amounts of data, and capacity for artificial intelligence once programmed, while noting their limitations in lacking human qualities like feelings and independent decision making.

Chapter 1 introduction
- 1. Introduction Course: Introduction to Computing 1 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 2. Computer The word computer comes from the word compute which means to calculate Thereby, computer is an electronic device that can perform arithmetic operations at high speed A computer is also called data processor because it can store, process and retrieve data whenever desired 2 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 3. Data Processing The activity of processing data using computer is called data processing Data is raw material used as input and information is processed data obtained as output of data processing Data Capture Data Manipulate Data Output Results Information 3 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 4. Characteristic of Computer Automatic Given a job, computer can work on it automatically without human intervention Speed Computer can perform data processing jobs very fast, usually measured in microseconds ( ), nanoseconds ( ), picoseconds ( ) Accuracy Accuracy of a computer is consistently high and the degree of its accuracy depends upon its design. Computer errors caused due to incorrect input data or unreliable programs are often referred to as Garbage-In- Garbage-Out (GIGO) 4 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 5. Characteristic of Computer Diligence Computer is free from monotony, tiredness and lack of concentration. It can continuously work for hours without creating any error. Versatility Computer is capable of performing almost any task, if a task can be reduced to a finite series of logic steps Power of Remembering Computer can store and recall any amount of information because of its secondary storage capability. It forgets or looses certain information only when it is asked to do so. 5 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 6. Characteristic of Computer No I.Q. A computer does only what it is programmed to do. It cannot take its own decision in this regard. No Feelings Computers are devoid of emotions. Their judgement is based on the instructions given to them in the form of programs that are written by us (human beings) 6 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 7. Evolution of Computers Blaise Pascal invented the first mechanical adding machine in 1642 Baron Gottfried Wilhlem von Leibniz invented the first calculator for multiplication in 1671 Keyboard machines originated in United States around 1880 Around 1880 Herman Hollerith came up with concept of punch cards that were extensively used as input media until late 1970s 7 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 8. Evolution of Computers Charles Babbage is considered to be the father of modern digital computers He designed Difference Engine in 1822 He designed fully automatic analytical engine in 1842 for performing basic arithmetic functions His efforts established a number of principles that are fundamental to the design of any digital computer 8 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 9. Some Well Known Early Computers The Mark I Computer (1937- 44) The Atanasoff Berry Computer(1939- 42) The ANIAC (1943- 46) The EDVAC (1946- 52) The EDSAC (1947- 49) The UNIVAC I (1951) 9 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
- 10. Computer Generations “Generation” in computer talk is a step in technology. It provides a framework for the growth of computer industry. Originally, it was used to distinguish between varying hardware technologies but now it has been extended to include both hardware and software Till today, there are five computer generations 10 Computer Fundamentals by Pradeep K. Sinha, Priti Sinha
