The computer illustrates modern life. They have infiltrated every aspect of our society. There are very few things that don't depend on this modern-day monster. Computers are no longer machines performing simple basic functions. Most businesses around the world could not operate without some form of IT. From supermarkets to ATMs, computers have impacted our lives and will continue to do so as the world advances with new and better technologies than before. It will continue to evolve. The abacus that appeared in Asia around 5,000 years ago can be considered the first computer, even a manual one. “I wish these calculations were done by steam!” These were the words spoken in 1822 in frustration by Charles Babbage (1791 – 1871) and with these words he was the first person to conceive the idea of ​​a computer as we know it. A man fascinated by mathematics who went to study at Cambridge in 1811 (N., 1995). He discovered that he knew more than his tutors, which encouraged him to set up the Analytical Society in the hope that they could change the field of mathematics in Britain. He was a co-founder of several other companies as well as a professor of mathematics at Cambridge. He quit to work on his engines. As an inventor, he spearheaded, among other things, the creation of Britain's modern postal service and was at the forefront of British technology. As a founding member of the Royal Astronomical Society of Great Britain, he saw the need and opportunity to innovate, as these astronomers had long been expected to do. , difficult and time-consuming calculations full of errors. Using his advanced mathematical skills, he was determined to create a machine... middle of paper... the Abbage Analytical Engine. We now have programs that replicate the engine's capabilities. As time has evolved, so has the computer. Technology has become so advanced that I think the power of the computer and the power and functions of programs are not yet fully understood by everyone. Computers have certainly improved people's lives. If we think about where it all started, in a huge room with thousands of pieces, and compare it to today, the progress is tremendous. In fact, if you own a cell phone, which is a powerful tool in itself, it's almost as good as having a handheld computer. From big old white monitors to ultra-thin flat screens. As man continues to educate himself, new and innovative ideas will emerge and the computer will continue to change and have a greater and greater impact on life and the world in the future..
