misconceptions and misinformation out there.
OK, my only comment to that is the stuff that says "Turing was THE
father of the computer, period, full stop."
Note the singular.
What about Charles Babbage and (Augusta) Ada Byron? How can you leave
them out?
How about John Antansaoff? From Wikip, to refresh your memory:
"John Vincent Atanasoff (October 4, 1903 ? June 15, 1995) was an
American physicist and inventor, best known for inventing the first
electronic digital computer."
