jun 10, 1940 - first gaming computer
Description:
Edward U. Condon created the first ever computer that can play the game Nim
To play Nim, one player sets up a number of piles of blocks, and the opponent chooses whether to go first or second. The players take turns removing blocks — each player may remove any number of blocks (at least one) from any one pile, and it is fine to take a whole pile — whichever player takes the last block wins.
