    This article discusses the development of the concept of a universal computer from Gottfried Leibniz's vision of a calculus ratiocinator in the 17th century to Alan Turing's formalization of computability and universal machines in the 1930s. It traces the key contributions of mathematicians and logicians such as George Boole, Charles Sanders Peirce, and Alonzo Church in advancing the theoretical underpinnings of computation during the intervening centuries.
