Did Charles Babbage invent the first computer?

Answer 1

Sort of, but it was entirely mechanical and he could never get funded to build it. It was called the Analytical Engine.

Charles Babbage invented a calculating machine which he called a 'Difference Engine'. And later designed an 'Analytical Engine' though this was never built.

Ada Lovelace was a niece of Babbage. She was the daughter of the Poet Byron. She had a significant interest in mathematics, and in developing an algorithm for Babbage's Engine. She is regarded as the first computer programmer.

As for the modern concept of a computer, for which there are several technical requirements, the ABC computer ; Atanasoff - Berry - Computer is the first of what would be considered the modern programmable computer. A model of this machine exists at Iowa State University.

Answer 2

Ada Lovelace described and published an algorithm for Charles Babbage's analytical engine to computer Bernoulli numbers. It is generally considered the first algorithm ever specifically tailored for implementation on a computer, and for this reason she is considered by many to be the first computer programmer.

Answer 3

Ada Lovelace did not invent the computer. She is, however, considered to be the writer of the first computer program which was written for a mathematical machine called the Difference Engine and she is considered the 'mother of computer programming.'
