The History of Computers, Programming, and Coding

The history of computers dates back to the textile industry. Babbage theorized it, Lovelace appended it, Hollerith counted it, Zuse built upon it, Aiken added his spin, and then Gates and Jobs sold it. Take a journey from the 1800s through today as we watch computers evolve.
Current coding languages and trends are also covered. We didn't have time to cover everything, so if you notice something that's important to the history of computers, feel free to mention it in the comments. Feel free to share or display this in any educational setting. But please don't copy it to your own KZbin channel without permission. Thanks!

Holy smokes, kid! This is more like a THESIS! Congratulations on producing what's probably the single most interesting, comprehensive, and compelling description on how we got to where we are in computers. Wow. No one mentions Germany's Zuse. The war is over people. History is history. Thank you.

Teaching is your thing. Please make more videos.

[@KAZVorpal]

A bunch of corrections: First: Bouchon's punch-card loom was 1725, not 1800s. Maybe you meant to say 18th century. Second: No, computers came before punch cards and Ada Lovelace coding: Babbage's Difference Engine was a mechanical calculator that did work. His Analytic engine was a mechanical computer whose friction coefficient wasn't low enough, so it couldn't work. BUT computers had been around since the 16th century, THREE HUNDRED YEARS before Babbage, and two hundred before Bouchon. From the 1500s, people who computed were known as computers. "Computers" as you think of them were first known as electronic computers, and they were specifically called that as a variation on the (human) computer. Likewise, calculators in the 19th century were human beings. Then there were mechanical calculators, then electronic calculators.

[@FreshandFelicia]

Thanks for the clarifications!

[@myhumblebeginnings]

There are small details that are still misteries to me. But hey, you nail the concept in this video, Brother. You literally nail it. This is one semester of coding history condensed into a 45-minute video. Congratulation.

[@myhumblebeginnings]

And this is my first time hearing a name "Herman Hollerith". Never knew until now that the guy was the inventor of Punch Card. Nevertheless, my further research revealed that Hollerith was not the only one involved in the development of punchcards. His colleague,John Shaw Billings, also had a contribution towards developing the punchcard. For further reading, see THE DEVELOPMENT OF PUNCH CARD TABULATION IN THE BUREAU OF THE CENSUS WITH OUTLINES OF ACTUAL TABULATION PROGRAMS.

We still get a LOT of flak about HTML not being a programming language. Technically, Hypertext Markup Language is a declarative programming language. Whether or not HTML is a "real" language is a matter of semantics. HTML and CSS are programmatic commands declaring what should exist on a web page and how it should be displayed, so it's a little confusing. But we did disclose that here at 40:24. What's your take?

[@djstapler]

in my horrible opinion: I'd say it's coding, but not programming (like you said, semantics). HTML won't help me calculate how many apples I'd have if jimmy ate some, but it's still a useful tool

[@mskaarupj]

I also do not consider HTML to be a programming language, you cannot write your own sorting algorithm in HTML afaik. I do however strongly disagree with your opinion that PHP is not a programming language 41:45 it is even possible to write standalone programs in PHP that run without a browser or webserver. SQL is the one that is more debatable, I feel that it is fine to categorise it as non-language even though I have heard that strictly speaking it is Turing complete and therefor is a language. It is a bit like the question of whether a cucumber is a fruit or a vegetable, most people consider it to be a vegetable even though it strictly speaking is a fruit.

[@abstractapproach634]

Terms have changed over the years. One used to "program thier vcr" so, I'd actually say that (as today languages are expected to be Turing complete) it *is programing but not coding* and no, I'm not just trying to be contentios but the above seems the mist natural modern interpretation. If you take code to mean a set of symbols used to affect the recipients behavior (all the way back, think code-breaking egnima) the you are *programming and coding* But no doubt you are programming, that is simply applying an algorithm to customize or speed up a task. (Think "programming our students) it's a much more abstract term.

[@stachowi]

if someone says it IS, shows they're not technically able to understand a Turning complete language (needs branches/conditional jumps)... so no it's not a programming language.

We're not really sure that happened. But it's an interesting story nonetheless.

[@JoypadDivison]

Except people on the original Mac team says it happened just like that. Revolution in the Valley. Xerox Alto (1973) ended up at a few universities, not sure about if they were on loan or sold... Xerox Star was released in 1981 and was commercially available, that's also the one apple got their "inspiration" from. Everything builds on earlier ideas though.
