Polymath a, mathematician, philosopher inventor and mechanical, Engineer babbage is best remembered for originating the concept of a programmable. computern 1991, a perfectly functioning difference engine was constructed from Babbage's original plans. Built to tolerances achievable in the 19th century, the success of the finished engine indicated that Babbage's machine would have worked.
His previous Difference Engine was a special purpose device intended for the production of mathematical tables. Babbage was born on December 26, 1791 in Teignmouth, Devonshire UK. He entered Trinity College, Cambridge in 1814 and graduated from Peterhouse.In 1817 he received an MA from Cambridge and in 1823 started work on the Difference Engine through funding from the British Government.In 1827 he published a table of logarithms from 1 to 108000. In 1828 he was appointed to the Lucasian Chair of Mathematics at Cambridge (though he never presented a lecture).n 1817 he received an MA from Cambridge and in 1823 started work on the Difference Engine through funding from the British Government.
