During World War 2, code breakers used computational analytical models to try and work out what enemy messages meant.Tommy Flowers and Alan Turing invented a computer called Colossus which was the world's first electronic, digital, programmable computer.
It was HUGE.Alan Turing published a paper called On Computable Numbers, with an application to the Entscheidungsproblem. The paper proved that a machine capable of processing a stream of 1s and 0s according to programmed instructions would be capable of solving any problem.Rear Admiral Dr. Grace Murray Hopper, worked with Howard Aiken from 1944 and used his machine for gunnery and ballistics calculation for the US Bureau of Ordnance’s Computation project.
Dr. Hopper greatly simplified programming by inventing the “COBOL” language which was the first programming language to use English for variable names and logical operations rather than machine code.Rear Admiral Dr. Grace Murray Hopper, worked with Howard Aiken from 1944 and used his machine for gunnery and ballistics calculation for the US Bureau of Ordnance’s Computation project.

The computer as we know it today had its beginning with a 19th century English mathematics professor name Charles Babbage. ... It was called the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC). In 1943 an electronic computer name the Colossus was built for the military.
