The Computer History section of Computer Hope is another section and added bonus of using Computer Hopes free service. Within our time line you will find a very detailed section listing key events to the evolution of computers.

In addition to creating the Computer History pages Computer Hope has integrated all of the years located throughout its database into the History pages.

The ENIAC is Dedicated.

The formal dedication ceremony served to demonstrate the Moore School’s leadership in the field of electronic digital computers and the Army’s foresight in funding the project.

Six weeks after the dedication ceremony, Eckert and Mauchly resigned from the Moore School. Since they were unwilling to relinquish their patent rights to the EDVAC, the Moore School felt that their association with the University had to be severed.

Tutorial One - Welcome to BASIC-256


Welcome to BASIC-256! BASIC-256 is a programming language that you can use to write your very own computer programs. These tutorials will show you how, step-by-step.

A computer program is a set of instructions that tells a computer what to do. The computer reads the instuctions one at a time, and does exactly what they say.

Here's an example:

print "Welcome to BASIC-256!!!"

If you type that line into the BASIC-256 editor, and click the [Run] button, you should see a welcome message printed out in the Text Output window. If you don't see a welcome message, make sure you typed it exactly as shown and try again.

Now how does this work? You might already have guessed what the PRINT command does. The PRINT command prints a message onto the screen. The message has to be in quotation marks. You can change the welcome message to anything you'd like, as long as you put it in quotes. Let's try changing it now. Why don't we make the program more friendly and have it greet us by name?

print "Welcome to BASIC-256, Ian!!!"

(You can put your own name in -- Ian is my name) There, that's better. But what if we want the computer to say something else? Let's try adding another line to the program.

print "Welcome to BASIC-256, Ian!!!"
print "How are you today?"

Now, when you run the program, you should see two lines printed out. Adding another line means that the computer runs the first line, and then the second one, in order.
