  He invented logarithms which use look-up to find the answer to error-prone math problems.
- 
  
  Blaise Pascal was a mathmatician who worked on calculus. The pascaline didn't work because of unreliable mechanical parts.
- 
  
  It works on the basics from logarithms.
- 
  
  The stepped reckoner was built by Gotfried Willhelm. He loved the binary system so he used it to control the machine.
- 
  
  Built a model for the modern computer. He used punched cards to put information in the machine.
- 
  
  Babbage tried to make a calculating machine, but to try to make sure he made no mistakes he had the figures done twice. He was also considered the Father of Computers.
- 
  
  She was the first computer programmer.
- 
  
  He made a card sorter with a charged pin that made it work by going through holes in punched cards.
- 
  
  She was a mathmatician who attended Yale and taught math at Vasser.She worked at Harvard on the Mark l.
- 
  
  He needed a completly different approach to make the computer. He made his machine out of relays.They used the binary system to turn it off and on.
- 
  
  Alan basically started modern electronic digital computing. His machine used a stream of 1s and 0s or as we call it the binary system.
- 
  
  It was an early special purpose electronic computer that may have been built by Vincent Atanasoff.
- 
  
  It was a very expensive computer back in 1968 when it costed $1,801,035 and now it costs about the same as an average calculator.
- 
  
  Howard Aiken began to build like Charles Babbage. He made the hardware almost the same as Babbage's hardware. Aiken started with the Mark l and got to the Mark lV.
- 
  
  They are built into computer chips. It also switches an electric current off and on in a computer.
- 
  
  A valve controlled the electronic current going through it.
- 
  
  Componets are connected to make it work and it has transistors.
- 
  
  Transistors are built into microprocessors. It is also about the size of a postage stamp.
- 
  
  It was a good calculating important computer.
