"Dr. Tommy Ferrows, Dr. Turing, you have made outstanding contributions to our electronic numerical points and computers. Now, the Empire will award you the honorable title of the Sacred Aryans!" When I heard that the electronic computer had been successfully developed, Cialec couldn't wait to fly straight from the wolf's den to the University of Munich and see the computer in front of me.

As a person who traveled through time in later generations, Cialek certainly understood the huge role that electronic computers can play. Not to mention anything else, with the development of his own ballistic missiles, Dr. Braun has become completely overwhelmed.

Every time a flight test is conducted, the room of his men has to use a hand-crank calculator to calculate for several weeks. This is a very complicated process.

And now, with a computer, everything will change!

Dr. Turing has a smart brain and is the winner of countless titles, such as the father of modern computers, the father of artificial intelligence, etc. At the beginning, after accidentally discovering Dr. Turing, Cialek helped to provide advice and used agent Falcon to successfully seduce Turing and let Turing work for the empire obediently.

As for another person, he is the most precious wealth of the empire. Dr. Ferrows, this is an important computer expert who can be compared with von Neumann!

Generally speaking, in various electronic computer textbooks, Eniac is called the world's first computer, born in the United States in 1946. Dr. Neumann played a prominent role in the development of computers. For example, until now, all computers have been built according to the structure of von Neumann.

However, during the war, some countries also prompted the development of computers. For example, Britain believed that its Colossus was the real world's first electronic computer, which was more than two years earlier than the emergence of the Eniac computer.

During World War II, the German "Lorenz" encryption machine was the main encryption machine used for communication between senior German generals, including Hitler, and it was very difficult to decipher the passwords encrypted by it.

The main purpose of developing the "Kolosas" computer was to decipher the password encrypted by the "Lorenz" encryption machine. This "Kolosas" computer was developed in March 1943 and was shipped to the Bletchley Park at the end of the same year. On January 10, 1944, the "Kolosas" computer began to run.

Of course, from this perspective, it seems a bit too much to call it an electronic computer. After all, it is only used to decipher passwords, but the people who developed it undoubtedly have smart minds, which is Dr. Ferrows.

In order to win Turing, Cialek had a lot of brains, but Dr. Ferraus was much easier.

After occupying Britain, Dr. Ferrows did not leave with George VI. He still stayed in his university. After discovering this man, the German Gestapo quickly found him, hoping that he could cooperate, and he happily agreed.

In this era, there were still many people who knew the current affairs. They either had their old empire annihilated or had their new life in the new empire. Dr. Ferrows was obviously the latter.

There are not many computer experts in Germany. With these two human backbone, the development of German electronic computers has begun to enter the fast lane. What excited the two was that German transistor technology gave them a bigger stage to perform.

So, the first-generation German computer in front of me appeared like this.

This computer is not comparable to later microcomputers. It is a large cabinet, standing in the center of the laboratory, covering an area of ​​less than ten square meters, and is all plugged into circuit boards.

In history, Eniac covers an area of ​​150 square meters. Compared with this type of electronic tube computer, the transistor is much smaller.

"Our first-generation computer uses 17,000 transistors, 600 electronic tubes, 6,000 switches, 7,000 resistors, 10,000 capacitors, 500,000 wires, and consumes 14 kilowatts of power and can perform 5,000 additions/second operations." Dr. Ferrors said to Cialick.

Although a large number of transistors are used, electronic tubes are still essential in some circuits. Such circuits are still relatively large, but five thousand operations can be performed per second, which is a very amazing result, and he is very satisfied.

Cialek nodded, watching the giant making a buzzing sound. It was the fan inside the cabinet dissipating heat. Cialek looked at the paper tape on one side and was constantly spitting it out, and was printing the result.

Today's computers are different from those in later generations. They have no keyboard, no display screen, and input and output, and they all rely on drilled paper tapes. Such efficiency is of course low.

Cialek, who is from engineering, still has some understanding of it. Now that electronic computers have just come out, you can use paper to bring input and output, but it is quite inconvenient.

Although various fool-like program tools in later generations are not possible to be implemented, they should be considered in the initial stages.

"We can invent an assembly language," said Cialick. "In a computer, we first design a compiler, use mnemonics to replace the opcode of machine instructions, and use address symbols or labels to replace the address of instructions or operands. This will speed up the input of data by a hundred times."

Paper tape records zeros and one, which is quite cumbersome. If it is described in one language, it will be much more convenient! Cialis had learned plc in his previous life and was familiar with this assembly language. Now he talked about it: "For example, we use shl to represent the logical left-shift instruction, add numbers to represent the left-shifting several digits, and then we can directly perform calculations."

Cialick only said this, and Dr. Ferrows understood it. In front of him, there seemed to be something like a typewriter used as a keyboard. It can be realized by installing a conversion circuit between the keyboard and the computer!

This will greatly improve efficiency and reduce the chance of errors. The input and output are all drilled paper tapes, which is quite cumbersome.

"We really admire your wisdom, Head of State Cialis." Dr. Ferrars' eyes shone with light, and he said to Cialis.

This is the advantage of time travelers. For Cirick, as long as the most obvious things in later generations are new ideas, they are definitely correct, survival of the fittest, and those wrong ones have long disappeared in the long river of history.

"I hope you all will be cautious and keep arrogance and impetuous, continue to develop new computers, simplify input and output, and your contribution to the empire will be written in history."

These people will definitely enter the history books. Cialek is very aware that the emergence of electronic computers has completely changed the whole world. At least for now, it is not just ballistic calculations of ballistic missiles. If improved, it can be loaded on warships and fire control calculations. When the volume is reduced, it can be loaded on aircraft or even tanks.
