In 1944, the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer (ENIAC) was completed, marking the advent of the digital age. Created by engineers John W. Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert at the University of Pennsylvania, ENIAC was the first electronic general-purpose computer. Weighing over 27 tons, it occupied an entire room and executed complex calculations rapidly and accurately. This innovation paved the way for modern computing, revolutionizing industries and accelerating technological progress worldwide.
