Programming the ENIAC revisited
Original: Programming the ENIAC (2011)
Columbia University's computing history page on programming the ENIAC is drawing fresh attention. The piece recounts how the earliest electronic computer was programmed in the 1940s, when operators had to physically rewire the machine rather than write software, work largely done by the women later known as the ENIAC programmers. Readers are sharing and discussing the account of this foundational moment in computing history.
Why now: Historical accounts of early computing and the pioneering ENIAC programmers continue to resonate with tech audiences.
