Comments by "" (@EbenBransome) on "How the Modern Computer Was Invented...By Accident" video.

  1.  @NoahSpurrier  Except that Great Britain really was first, Babbage had the idea in the first half of the 19th century, Turing published On Computable Numbers in 1937, and the first complete electronic computer was built at Manchester, UK. This video is as flawed as Hollywood making it up that a Naval Enigma was captured by a US ship. It wasn't...why does the USA which leads in so many things constantly have to lie about who was first to discover or invent something?

  2. Admiral Grace Hopper was involved in the development of the first high level programming language, COBOL. It's still around.

  3. Turing extended the work of Boole to devise the Turing machine which is in concept the basis of all numeric computing.
