Admittedly on his own Babbage did complete the design of the Analytical Engine and an improved Difference Engine that was much smaller and needed only about one fourth the parts, but with no way to get funding and no machinist he could not very well build them.
Or to oversimplify it, breach of contract caused by Babbage's inability to stop engineering better products and get the one he had into actual production.
becase the cords was,t right
It took Charles Babbage 9 years to get the computer right.
no
He didnt. He tried to get money for it in 1835 but investors where sceptical due to Babbage's earlier construction failures. In 1837, swedish engineer Georg Scheutz managed to build a machine based on Babbage's blue prints
London, but he never got to build it.
Charles Babbage arrived at the first mechanical computer by creating the Analytical Engine, a system capable of performing fully fledged arithmetic computations. He is also the inventor of the Difference Engine.
None of Charles Babbage's computers were built. He invented & designed them but failed to build them. You are probably thinking of the Analytical Engine, but as I said it was never built.
Babbage has priority as his invention precedes Zuse by about a century, even though he never was able to build it.
The Difference engine is a engine that Charles tried to build 1850-1859, it was to be used to calculate logarithmic tables.
Charles Babbage (26 December 1791 - 18 October 1871) Charles Babbage was an English mathematician, philosopher, mechanical engineer and (proto-) computer scientist who originated the idea of a programmable computer. Parts of his uncompleted mechanisms are on display in the London Science Museum. Working from Babbage's original plans, a computer was ultimately built and functioned perfectly. Built to tolerances achievable in the 19th century, the finished engine indicated that Babbage's machine would have worked. Babbage had even designed a printer; it featured astonishing complexity for a 19th century device.
Charles Babbage. It was designed as a general purpose programmable computer, mostly to be used to compute tables for navigation and mathematics.
no. but he did invent the first general purpose programmable computer invented.
