Zuse

  Since we were
recently discussing the first computer, I wondered, if 
the Zuse was "first", then what is the ENIAC famous for? 
It's main use was calculating ballistics tables for artillery. If 
anyone really cares, I could explain it in detail - but it's pretty 
boring stuff. For one thing, why is it generally considered to be the first
computer? 
Secondly, what kind of calculation did this involve? Was it a table in 
the computer or did it involve an equation? What order equation?
