More about the book
Exploring the complexities of digital terminology, this essay examines the historical context and significance of the term "digital computer," first introduced by George Robert Stibitz in 1942. It highlights the inconsistencies in how computer functions and properties are described across literature, emphasizing the lack of clarity regarding the distinctions between analogue, discreet, and digital systems. Stibitz's insights into the efficiency of programming with two discreet voltage levels in his report on anti-aircraft fire control underline the transformative impact of digital computing.
