To do mathematical calculations faster and with less chance of error.


When did john Napier invented logarithms to help reduce errors when performing calculations?

John Napier discussed logarithms in 1614 in his book titled Mirifici Logarithmorum Canonis Descriptio. He probably discovered it some time before 1614.The use of logarithms did not reduce errors when performing calculations. The use of logarithms made calculations faster possibly at the loss of some precision.

Why did William oughtred invent the computer?

William Oughtred did not invent the computer. He was a mathematician and inventor who is credited with the invention of the slide rule, a calculating device used for performing mathematical calculations. Oughtred's invention of the slide rule in the early 17th century significantly improved the accuracy and efficiency of mathematical calculations.


Explain the speed of the computer?

Computers have many different components with different parts. The higher speed of that component, the faster the computer does that job. For example, even though they are more expensive and hold less data, SSDs are faster than most hard drives. Therefore, the computer boots faster, and file operations are faster. The primary factor in how fast a computer itself works is usually the processer. The faster the processor is (more gigahertz), the faster the computer can make calculations.


What is The Clock rated?

It is the speed taken by a microprocessor in the CPU to execute instructions.. It is often measured in MHz and most often GHz. The faster the rate is the faster your computer can perform calculations and do instructions..


What is definition of program computer?

An automatic programmable computer is a computer that can run programs without requiring the constant attention and instruction by a human operator; this distinguishes it from a calculator or calculating device, both of which require a human operator to command the machine to perform every step of the calculation one at a time. Once a program has been written for an automatic programmable computer and it is running the chance of errors occurring is dramatically lower than when a human operator is performing the same steps on a calculator or calculating device and is much much faster.


What is the name of the Indian female Mathematician who was faster than a computer?

(There have always been certain tasks that were difficult for a computer - some calculus calculations for example - that a human could do faster. It always depended on the task and the speed of the old computers. These days, if you choose a very fast computer, it is pretty impossible to find a task that a human can do faster.)
