A Brief History of the Computer
Humanity has used devices to aid in computation for millenia.
One of the earliest machines that could perform arithmetic calculations was the Chinese abacus, which was invented about 5000 years ago.
In 1623, the first mechanical calculator was invented by Wilhelm Schickard, and so the computing era began.

Electronics for Absolute BeginnersThe history of electronics, which is the study and use of devices that control the flow of charged particles, can be traced back to 1874 when Irish scientist George Johnstone Stoney (1826-1911) suggested that electricity must be "built" out of tiny electrical charges. Twenty years later, he coined the name "electron". Today, electronic devices are all around us ... computers, cell (mobile) phones, televisions, calculators, hearing aids, and cars are just a few examples of devices that form part of everyday life in the 21st century and which make use of electronics. The purpose of this book, which is available from Amazon, is to introduce the subject of electronics to people who have no prior knowledge of the subject. If you don't know what a prototyping breadboard is, or have no idea what a resistor or diode do, then this book will help you to gain a basic understanding of what electronics components exist and what they are used for. You will also learn how to combine such components to build electronics circuits. |
