Calculator is a
invention of very well know genius. Who
do you think invented it? His
intelligence was discovered at an very early ages of him. Do not you wonder who is this genius that
denied by the mathematical community stating “ He cannot write it at this age,
probably his dad wrote it”
This genius is
Blaise Pascal. Blaise Pascal along with Wilhelm Schickard was one of two inventors of the mechanical
calculator in the early 17th century. He
was spurred to it when participating in the burden of arithmetical labour
involved in his father's official work as supervisor of taxes at Rouen. Pascal
went through 50 prototypes before presenting his first machine to the public in
1645.
He dedicated it to Pierre Séguier, the chancellor
of France at the time.[3] He built around twenty more machines
during the next decade, often improving on his original design. Nine machines
have survived the centuries,[4]most
of them being on display in European museums. In 1649 a royal privilege,
signed by Louis XIV of France,[5] gave him the exclusivity of the design
and manufacturing of calculating machines in France. Pascal designed the first
mechanical calculator to still survive from the 17th century
PS. Pascal
had special interest in pressure science and mercury barometer including
mathematics. Science world has given the name “Pascal” to the pressure unit because of
their respect to the his work and intelligence
