Introduction
Into this presentation I will talk about computer history and development. That starts from the beginnings of a primitive device for simple mathematical operations until the modern day computer that can do more things and that all faster than ever. And I will try to show how the computer becomes one important thing in modern way of living. Computers are affecting our live in a many ways so that we could not imagine the life without a computer. That can be god or a bad thing. Computers can help to do our job fast and reliable, modern day companies could not exist; the whole world development would go with another way. But we have the modern day sikneshow it is called the computer addiction. Many young people does not live their life on the way their should, they reduce their life to only one thing and that is computer normally connected to the internet. Mostly used for the social global network like facebook and other or for games.

Everything about a computer is useful but when it is used right. Facebook can be used for the peoples that are living far away from us, so they can take a part of our live. We can see their pictures, video clips, their comments and chat with them. But when facebook is used wrong people are opsest, with how many friends they have, how is rated their account, and there is internet mobbing. People use different platforms of internet like facebook, twitter, and other to say something bad about another person or thing, there are many ways to make damage. Play computer games can be a great whay to relax, with a newest technology, games are more interactive the ever before, with a great graphical quality we cannot separate what is real and what is just a game. But with a wrong usage of computer games, people are losing the reality and they are living in an imaginer world of games. That are bad and good things about computers in time which we are living. Here are the history of computers and their development

Computers: History and Development

5.000 years ago in Asia people have used abacus. Abacus was the first computer. They have used abacus for trading transactions but use of paper and pencil spread and abacus lost on its importance. The next step was the pascaline which was developed from Blaise Pascal. When he developed the pascaline, he was only 18 years old. He called it numerical wheel calculator. With pascalines improvement by German mathematical Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibnitz. Leibnitz mechanical multiplayer worked by a system of gears and dials. The real beginnings of computer as we know them today was the steam computer constructed by an English mathematical professor Charles Babbage. Steam computer was powered by steam and was large as a locomotive. The machine could store a program and then perform calculations and print the results automatically. That was just the Beginning of computer development. The next steps of a modern computer development are bather known as five generations of modern computer.

The first computer generation are basely used for war purposes. That computers where
very big and were slowly and have consumed lots of energy. Those computers have been used for coding and decoding massages.

The second computer generation starts by the invention of the transistor. The transistors
replaced the large, cumbersome vacuum tube in televisions, radios and computer result was the smaller dimensions of a computer and they were more powerful, they could

The third generation starts with the integrated circuit (IC). In the beginnings the IC was
combination tree electronic components on a small silicon disc. With hard work scientists manage to put even more components on a small disc. Because of that computers becomes smaller and bather in every aspect.

Fourth generation
This generation are going in to the same way and that are increasing the numbers of components on a chip. The numbers of components are growing from hundreds of components to the millions of elements. Special thing about this generation of computers is that the chips where built not only for computers but for: TV, microwave ovens, automobiles, ect.

Fifth generation
This generation is placed in our present and future. The computers of this generation are the most developed computers and they are becoming bather every day. Here is not only the hardware on the top of the possible but the software is also bather than ever before. In the past people who are using a computer have to be highly educated for using a computer. But today even the people who doesn t use computer in their everyday life can perform complex operation on a computer.

Conclusion
The humankind always have been searching for something that could make their job easier. In the beginning those trays are very simple but with time they are becoming more complex and they could do more. Computers are wary useful devices. Computers are taking a big part of our job. They do the same job faster, more accurate. In time that we are living in. we cannot imagine how the life would be without a PC. A day without a computer can mean enormous lost in money and resources. Computer is useful only when is used right. Today when we say computer we do not men only computer, we mean computer connected to the internet. That is how the computer is becoming the most of their power and importance. With the computer development, we have bather computers with bather characteristics and that all only in three months. That process is continuous and does not mean to stop so that we in three months have the new technology that means bather computers. We won t stop producing and developing computers because we do not use them only for adiaconal purposes, but we are building robots that are one of a complex art of a computer, almost every device have some kaind of a computer in it to regulate their functions.
