2. Analytical Machine
In addition to the machines, Babbage also invented other interesting devices like:
The plans of the analytical machine counted on a part destined to the impression of results very innovative for the time, being able to add spaces in white, to alternate between columns or even to change typography, therefore we could say that invented the printer as the We know today.
He broke Vigenère's key encryption, as well as the much weaker cipher called Vigenère's cipher today. This discovery was used in English military campaigns and was considered a military secret, for which only the British knew it. As a result of this the merit of the discovery was bestowed upon Friedrich Kasiski.
He proposed and helped establish the current postal postage system, since until then the cost of sending a letter was given by the distance it traveled. He realized that calculating the cost for each destination was more expensive than sending the letter, so he managed to unify the prices.
He invented the "Cowcatcher" (Pilot) that serves the trains to divert objects that have in the way that could derail it.
He invented the ophthalmoscope, but giving it to a doctor to prove it was lost and after the years Hermann von Helmholtz invented it independently and since then began to be used.

How many times is the word grain mentioned in the bible?
u gise out there do u love the computer it was invented by charles babbage
Did Egyptians invent the way computers do their math?
No, the ancient Egyptians did not invent the way computers do math. The invention of modern computers and their mathematical operations is credited to many scientists and mathematicians, including Charles Babbage, Ada Lovelace, and Alan Turing. The Egyptians did, however, make significant contributions to mathematics, including advancements in geometry and numerical systems.

What is ADA Lovelace accomplishments?
Lovelace was fascinated by Charles Babbage's idea for a new mechanical calculating machine, the Difference Engine. In 1842 Luigi F. Menabrea [b. Chambéry, Savoy, France, September 4, 1809, d. St Cassin, France, May 24, 1896] summarized the concept behind Babbage's more advanced calculating machine, the Analytical Engine. Lovelace translated Menabrea's article into English and added her own notes as well as diagrams and other information. She predicted that such a machine, which Babbage never built, would have many applications beyond arithmetic calculations, from scientific research to composing music and producing graphics. She explained how the machine might be instructed to perform a series of calculations. The programming language ADA is named for her, although the countess has only a slender claim to the frequently used label of "first programmer." But she really did write a program, one for calculating Bernoulli numbers--not a mean feat. In her 1843 translation of an article on Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine, Ada Byron Lovelace (1815-1852) added notations three times the length of the original text. The "Notes" earned her a place in computer history when they were later recognized as the first detailed description of a computer, including what is now considered a software program. In recognition of her enlightened ideas that were over 100 years before their time, the United States Department of Defense named its Ada programming language after her in 1980. Source: Answers.com
