Generation of computers


A computer is an electrical device that facilitates a variety of tasks for us. It is a multitasking powerhouse that produces precise outcomes.

Computers from the first generation used machine language. The simplest programming language for computers to use is called machine language. Large vacuum tubes in the first-generation computers increased their size and cost.

Transistors took the place of vacuum tubes in the second generation of computers. Although Bell Labs invented the transistor in 1947, it wasn't until the late 1950s that they were widely deployed.

As a result of the transistor's superior performance over the vacuum tube, computers in the second generation are now smaller, faster, cheaper, more energy-efficient, and more dependable.

The third generation of computers was made possible by advancements in integrated circuit technology. Computers can now operate more quickly and effectively because to the downsizing of transistors and their placement on silicon chips, also referred to as semiconductors.



Keyboards and monitors connected to an operating system that allowed the device to run various programmes while being managed by centralised software were used to initiate user interaction. Of course, punch cards and printouts were replaced by keyboards and monitors.

The fourth generation of computers was launched with the integration of thousands of integrated circuits onto a single silicon chip. In the palm of one's hand, what once filled a whole room, was now confined. The central processing unit, memory, and input/output controllers were all merged onto a single chip for the Intel 4004 microprocessor, which was unveiled in 1971..

Although the fifth generation of computers is still being developed, some functions, like speech recognition, are now in use. Parallel processing and superconductors are enabling the development of artificial intelligence.

Online cbse Class 11 maths : Online coaching classes for 11 maths  and for other subjects. We are here to solve students problem instantly, So that they can improve himself/herself. One to One Correspondence and Equivalent Sets Suppose the members of the family are dinning and plates are prepared on the table then there is a One to one correspondence between the set of family members and the plates prepared. We will indicate this correspondence by the symbol If each element of a set A is associated with one and only one element of a set B and each element of B is associated with one and only one element of set A, then the sets A and B are said to be in one to one correspondence. If both the sets are finite and if they are in one to one correspondence, it is obvious that they have the same number of elements. If two sets have the same number of elements, they are said to be equivalent sets. Using symbol, we write A B. Between two equivalent sets, a one to one corr...
