Figures Slates Stones WHAT IS CALCULATION AND WHY IS IT REQUIRED ? Calculation is a mathematical process that transforms one or more inputs into one or more outputs or results to nd an accurate value.
fi WHAT ARE CALCULATORS ? A device to preform arithmetic operations on numbers. EARLY MANUAL CALCULATORS
Abacus Napier’s bone
• First manual calculating device • Made by John Napier used by roman and greeks • Simpli ed complex • Calculations like addition and multiplication. subtraction. fi MECHANICAL CALCULATORS Pascaline calculators • Invented by Blaise Pascal in 1649 • Could do addition and subtraction • Around 50 pieces in total were manufactured • It was a gift to mathematics ,philosophy and theology
• Due to lack of technology and skilled men it was tough to
manufacture it at that time
• It was very expensive for that period of time. So it became
a thing for elite class only. MECHANICAL CALCULATORS Arithmometer • Invented by Charles Xavier Thomas in1820 • First commercially successful mechanical. • Shift from human calculators to calculating machines • A lot of companies started making its clones in 1883’s , due to which it was available in cheaper rates and more people were able to use it • Scienti c ,military and other government institutes also accepted this calculator • After this the term calculator was replaced by arithmometer in some calculators till 1940’s • It lead to a idea to create a micro process for faster results fi MECHANICAL CALCULATORS Difference engine 1 and 2 • Invented by Charles Babbage in 1882 • Invented by Charles • Lead the foundation Babbage in 1882 but for modern computers. was manufactured after his death • Error free mathematical tables • Had ability to print for scienti c and results of calculations engineering elds automatically. • Used for solving • Increased polynomial equation. programmability • Lacked to perform general purpose calculation fi fi AUTOMATIC CALCULATORS Analytical engine • Invented by Charles Babbage in1842 • First design for general purpose computer. • Took punched cards as a form of input • It inspired modern programming practices • Had storage that would hold both data and input. Thus inspired electronic memory. • Challenged traditional computation . • Left a lasting legacy. ELECTRONIC CALCULATORS Busicom 141-PF • Invented by Busicom corporation in1970 • First commercial calculator with microprocessor • 4004 intel microprocessor was developed for the calculator • This bought technological and industrial advancements. • The chip also provided storage . That become base for future storage device • The chip could also be programmed for ping pong games and gps etc. • Provided scope for inventions and innovations to engineers ELECTRONIC CALCULATORS Casio fx-58 • Invented by casino in1973 • Energy suf cient • More convenient for users due to small batteries • Sustainable technology • Better display because of contrast ratio • Cells were costly but had a long life term. fi INTRODUCTION OF CALCULATORS IN EDUCATION AND IN OTHER PROFESSIONS DESKTOP CALCULATORS Casio FX 7000G • Invented in1985 • First graphing calculator • To solve the problem with electric power line transmission • Impacted education in middle and high schools. • Eased visualisation and increased the level of thinking and questioning. • Impacted on casio’s reputation • Widen the range of tasks a calculator can perform. • Programmability helped users to customise the device according to their needs. DESKTOP CALCULATORS Casio fx-991EX • Invented in early 2000’s • Facilitates the learning process • Cost ef cient • Extended battery life • Natural display • Qr code technology fi ICONIC CALCULATOR
