摘要

We call them computers, but today that's an outrageous misnomer. A better term would be "all purpose information processing unit." Truly, when "computers" were invented that's what they were. Those early computers, rooms full of vacuum tubes and relays, were designed for just one thing — to perform calculations; to compute. Essentially, those early computers were used to compute tables of artillery projectile trajectories. Each calculation, or set of calculations, had to be entered into the computer individually. And it was done by rerouting wires, not by feeding in cards or typing information in on a keyboard. Compared to the capabilities of a laptop of today, those computers early computers were primitive.
