  • The Transistor

    The Transistor
    William Shockley, John Bardeen, and Walter Brattain made the first transistor in 1947. The first transistor was a point contact transistor. This made the incorporated circuit conceivable which prompted numerous different revelations. This replaced the vacuum tube which wasted a lot of energy. This transistor was the beginning of modern electronics.
  • FORTRAN
