Introduction Historical Documents "Sketch of the Analytical Engine" by L. F. Menabrea, translated and with extensive commentary by Ada Augusta, Countess of Lovelace. This 1842 document is the definitive exposition of the Analytical Engine, which described many aspects of computer architecture and programming more than a hundred years before they were "discovered" in the twentieth century. If you have ever doubted, even for a nanosecond, that Lady Ada was, indeed, the First Hacker, perusal of this document will demonstrate her primacy beyond a shadow of a doubt. "On the Analytical Engine" , Chapter VIII of Charles Babbage's 1864 autobiography, Passages from the Life of a Philosopher The Report of the Committee of the British Association for the Advancement of Science which, in 1878, recommended against constructing the Analytical Engine.

    Extractions: The First Computer Seldom, if ever, in the history of technology has so long an interval separated the invention of a device and its realisation in hardware as that which elapsed between Charles Babbage's description, in 1837, of the Analytical Engine , a mechanical digital computer which, viewed with the benefit of a century and a half's hindsight, anticipated virtually every aspect of present-day computers. Charles Babbage (1792-1871) was an eminent figure in his day, elected Lucasian Professor of Mathematics at Cambridge in 1828 (the same Chair held by Newton and, in our days, Stephen Hawking); he resigned this professorship in 1839 to devote his full attention to the Analytical Engine. Babbage was a Fellow of the Royal Society and co-founder of the British Association for the Advancement of Science, the Royal Astronomical Society, and the Statistical Society of London. He was a close acquaintance of Charles Darwin, Sir John Herschel, Laplace, and Alexander Humboldt, and was author of more than eighty papers and books on a broad variety of topics. His vision of a massive brass, steam-powered, general-purpose, mechanical computer inspired some of the great minds of the nineteenth century but failed to persuade any backer to provide the funds to actually construct it. It was only after the first electromechanical and later, electronic computers had been built in the twentieth century, that designers of those machines discovered the extent to which Babbage had anticipated almost every aspect of their work.

    Extractions: Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine As was previously noted, the first device that might be considered to be a computer in the modern sense of the word was conceived by the eccentric British mathematician and inventor Charles Babbage. a In 1822, Babbage proposed building a machine called the Difference Engine to automatically calculate mathematical tables. The Difference Engine was only partially completed when Babbage conceived the idea of another, more sophisticated machine called an Analytical Engine. (Some texts refer to this machine as an " Analytical Steam Engine ," because Babbage intended that it would be powered by steam). a The Analytical Engine was intended to use loops of Jacquard's punched cards to control an automatic calculator, which could make decisions based on the results of previous computations. This machine was also intended to employ several features subsequently used in modern computers, including sequential control, branching, and looping. a

    Extractions: engelsk matematiker och uppfinnare (1791-1871), professor i matematik i Cambridge. Han tänkte ut den första datorn, den helt mekaniska så kallade analysmaskinen , men lyckades aldrig bygga den. Tillsammans med Ada Lovelace skrev Babbage de första dataprogrammen. Innan han tänkte ut den analysmaskinen konstruerade han den så kallade differensmaskinen , som var en avancerad räknemaskin men ingen dator. Den blev heller aldrig färdigbyggd, trots att brittiska regeringen satsade stora pengar på projektet. Att maskinerna aldrig blev byggda berodde på en kombination av omständigheter, bland annat att Babbage inte var ingenjör och inte behärskade det praktiska konstruktionsarbetet. Men eftersom han tänkte rätt räknas han som den förste datorkonstruktören.

    Extractions: Charles Babbage's Computer Engines Mathematician and inventor Charles Babbage had already fallen out of favor with the British government and mathematical community before his death in 1871. He was a visionary, and like many visionaries, saw too far ahead of his time for his peers to fully comprehend or appreciate. Babbage was born December 26, 1792, to a banker in Totnes, Devonshire, England. Babbage had many brothers and sisters, but most died before adulthood and like them he was sickly as a child. Even before his formal education began, he was a tinkerer. He loved to take mechanical things apart, and did little else with his toys besides dissect them. Eventually Babbage was put in the care of a church school near Exeter, where the minister was told by his family to make sure that Babbage was healthy, rather than well-educated. Because of this concern, the minister didn't give Babbage enough work to keep him interested and occupied. Superstitious, despite a thorough Protestant upbringing, Babbage developed an obsession with the Devil. He asked his classmates to tell him every folk tales they knew about what forms the Devil appeared in. Babbage didn't really believe in ghosts and spirits, but he decided to give them a fair chance and made a test of the tales his classmates had told him about the Devil. He went up to the school attic, cut himself and drew a circle on the floor and even recited the Lord's Prayer in reverse. It was obvious, though, that the Devil had no intention of making a pact with Charles Babbage none of his forms appeared, and Babbage was satisfied that all spirits and demons were figments of the imagination.
