History of computing: Find all articles here
The "History of computing" series of articles sheds light on different eras, personalities and products in the history of computing. On this overview page you will find all published articles.
Did you know that a woman is considered the world's first programmer? Or that computers fuelled similar fears in their early days as artificial intelligence does today? Have you ever heard of the Intel 4004? If not, you can find an overview of the articles on the history of computing that have already been published on this page. From the beginnings in the distant past, when traders used the abacus to perform calculations, to the modern age, when Intel helped the PC achieve its breakthrough with the microprocessor. If you know everything anyway, you can indulge in nostalgia and add your two cents in the comments column.
In case you're wondering why the series was no longer titled "History of Computing" from part 6 onwards: The name is simply too unwieldy and too long.
