The Birth of Computer Science #computerscience #charlesbabbage

Charles Babbage, the father of modern computing, pioneered computational thinking, designing the Difference Engine and Analytical Engine, early forms of mechanical computers. He famously stated, “The whole of arithmetic now appeared within the grasp of mechanism.” Babbage saw machines as tools to automate logic and computation, laying the groundwork for computer science, artificial intelligence, and digital technology. His work shaped how we think about data, logic, and automation today. #charlesbabbage #computationalthinking #philosophy #logic #historyofcomputing #ai #mathematics #computerscience #timelessphilosophers #shorts
