The first computers were made in 1985 by Microsoft Corporations. The Operating system Microsoft used was called windows. Computers chips were already being used in many households then for circuit related tasks but the demand for a personal use computer was starting to slowly grow. People would use early computers for calculations and talk to others on a small base network. As GUI became more user friendly the popularity started to sore but some newcomers it was still very difficult learning all the commands and start up modules. The Computer market game completely changed again on April 1993 when the internet came out. The Internet was a way to connect everyone to each other from all over the world. Computer Scientist Tim Berners-Lee released the source code for the worlds first web browser and it became know as the World Wide Web. The Macintosh also know as the Mac was another powerful computer to come out in the mid 80s. The Macintosh was a big competitor with the Windows. The Macintosh used a different Operating system called Mac OS. The Mac OS had built apps that would let the user use painting apps and word documenting apps this was a big win for apple back in the day. As computers keep changing early computers were the foundation to how we got to were we are today.

  Abinezer Abebe STEM  Week 2                                       Computer Based Programming Languages Research   There are varies types of computer programming languages. Python is a interpreted programming language. Interpreted programming languages it incorporates modules exceptions and dynamic typing. Its a very high level programming language. Pythons writability and readability is why its ranked so high on most popular languages next to java and C. Python code is easily portable and has thousands of free open code programs. Why would a user choose python over C? C programming language works well with internal software and while python is a general all purpose language that can complete most tasks. Taking a look at python and C. C was first used in 1972 and designed by Dennis Ritchie and Bell labs. The main purpose of C at the time was for US Army development. Time went on and C was used in small electronics and became more practical. C was also used on the Unix operating syste

Abinezer Abebe STEM  Week 3                                       Computer Based Programming Languages Research   Most video games are made from custom code based on the C programming language. Game programming requires substantial skill in software engineering. There are 7 phases a program goes through before the game is published. The first and important is prototyping. The programmer might write down some ideas and figure out the game plans and how the game would work. Is the game going to be multiplayer is the game going to be online ? The programmer would come up a concept. Next step would be the game design. Here the programmer might Collab with others to deign the characters the game scene. Programmers often follow closely the game design that they have set. As they code every line of the program they capabilities are discovered and exploited. During production the programmer may create a great deal of source code to create his game. They also might use free open source code so

   Abinezer Abebe STEM  Week 8                                                                  Computer Based Research One of the biggest growing fields in Computer Science is Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning. Artificial Intelligence is different from basic programs because you aren't the one solving the problem but the computer itself. Artificial Intelligence uses Machine learning software's to fed to the computer this way the computer is "learning". For example a computer can detect images and identify and name the object. For this to work programmers would fed the computer countless pictures of what a dog is considered. Based of those pics you can test the computers knowledge and ask it if a picture is a dog or not. Also there are 5th Generation computer languages these vary from 3rd and 4th gen. In 3rd Generation languages the user is working with a programming language that isn't low level 0 and 1 code it has easier usability and has more key wo
