Giugno 1953

Una fotografia pubblicata da Popular Mechanics mostra una sfida tra sei persone e l’OARAC, computer sviluppato da General Electric. Il compito era calcolare il quadrato di 8.645.392.175: nessun concorrente ottenne il risultato esatto, mentre la macchina completò il calcolo rapidamente e senza errori. L’episodio contribuì a diffondere l’idea dei computer come strumenti capaci di superare l’uomo in velocità e precisione nei calcoli numerici.
