The evolution of computers

The computer has been one of the biggest influences to our society in the 20th century. Whether it is as simple as social networking or as complex as rocket science, computers and the artificial intelligence they provide have been aiding mankind ever since the first generation of computers rose in 1946. Today, it is impossible to imagine a life without them as their simple use and efficient work have not only made them the perfect pastime, but also made life easier for mankind in general.
