Analytical Engine
An analytical engine is a mechanical general-purpose computer which was designed and envisaged by Charles Babbage, but never built.
Though Charles Babbage achieved many things. But Charles Babbage Does not achieve his all goals. Without completing his Difference Engine he went to Analytical Engine. He designed the first programmable machine , the analytical engine. Though he did not complete it fully due to lack of resources and money. But he was right in theory. After some the Analytical engine was finished by some computer scientists and Charles Babbage was credited the "Father of Computers"..
The 'Difference Engine' - it was a mechanical calculator.
