"functioning, mechanical digital computer" (?)[edit]

Couldn't you argue that this is really a crude analog device? Or does the readout that gives you 2³ bits of capacity make it digital?

Had one of these as a kid and thought it was pretty lame. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Kusskedp (talk • contribs) 00:51, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]

The fact that it has discrete states makes it digital. I also had one as a kid, and I agree, it was lame. I wouldn't really call it a computer; it had no inputs, no outputs, and no memory. All it could do was step through a programmed sequence of up to eight states when you worked it's "clock" lever. The current state number appeared in binary in the window on the left. I don't remember if the program could "jam" at the end of the sequence, or if it always started over again from the beginning. I only ever programmed mine one time--to count from 0 to 7, and then start over from the beginning. Didn't seem to be any point in doing anything else with it after that. 68.161.219.208 (talk) 01:24, 6 July 2022 (UTC)[reply]
