What was the first computer

Computers and Technology
1 answer:
rodikova [14]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

This is a nuanced question. Define "computer".

Explanation:

It depends. There's not really a consensus on whether it's ABC or Programma 101. The ABC (Atanasoff-Berry Computer) came out in 1942. The Programma 101 came out in 1964.

The ABC was a huge vacuum tube contraption that weighed the same as three or four people. There was a design very similar to the ABC (I think it was called EINAC) but it was basically a copy and the patent for it was thrown out. The ABC wasn't patented.

If this is multiple choice then the answer is obvious. If not you're technically right either way. If it's Atari or something I will actually scream.

What happens when the programmer tries to access an array cell whose index is greater than or equal to its logical size?
just olya [345]

Answer:

When a programmer tries to access an item in an array cell whose index is greater than or equal to the array's logical size, this data element or item is garbage. This means that currently, the item is not the part of the program's useful data. Garbage contains objects or data which will not be used by a program running on it. So the value returned could be either of the two:

  • Value would be an arbitrary or random number if it is an array of numbers. Arbitrary means that the value is not predefined or specified in advance.
  • Value returned would be null if it is an array of objects.
