1) Which of the following best describes why Charles Babbage is sometimes called the "Father of Computing"?

a. Although Babbage's machines did not have all the characteristics of modern computers, their design included a number of key characteristics of modern computers; this was a major conceptual step in clarifying what a computer should be.

b. Even though they primarily consisted of mechanical parts, Babbage's machine was the first to include at least some electronic components.

c. There was a gradual but definite progression of computational machines from his machines to the first modern computers. That is, soon after his machines were publicized, others built better machines based on them, and then others built still better machines based on those machines, until eventually the first modern computers were created.

d. Although Babbage's machines did not have many of the characteristics of a modern computer, he nonetheless was able to use them to do a number of scientific calculations mechanically, and with great speed and reliability.

2) Which one of the following best describes the most important contributions of Ada Lovelace?

a. She was a co-designer of Babbage's Difference Engine and Analytical Engine. That is, she and Babbage worked closely together and made roughly equal contributions to the design of these machines.

b. She designed and ran programs that ran on Babbage's Difference Engine and Analytical Engine. Some of these programs did numeric computations, but others did various computations involving text.

c. She designed and ran programs that ran on Babbage's Difference Engine and Analytical Engine. These programs did numeric computations.

b. It took IBM and American Airlines a few years to commit to the project.

c. SABRE was a large, real-time (or near real-time) system, and such systems take time to complete.

d. SABRE was the first large system IBM worked on, and so the system development took longer than expected.

4) Which one of the following questions is true about Remington-Rand?

a. It went bankrupt and disappeared in the 1970s.

8) Which of the following are true about "pre-computer" history? Zero, one, or more than one may be true.

a. IBM, Burroughs, DEC, Control Data, and NCR were all companies that existed before the modern computer era, and that made office machinery the.

b. One reason the Jacquard loom is important to computing is it could follow a set of previously created instructions, rather than being entirely manual.

c. In the 19th century, a "computer" was a human who was employed to do arithmetic calculations.

d. Babbage complete his Difference Engine, but not his Analytical Engine.

9) Which of the following are true about the ENIAC? Zero, one, or more than one may be correct.

a. The ENIAC had many, although not all, characteristics of a modern computer.

b. Almost all computer historians consider the ENIAC the "first true computer."

A market is described by the equation Qd=100-P and Qs=P. A tax of $10 is placed on the seller of the product such that he will receive less to take home than the original equilibrium price. Therefore, the new supply equation becomes Qs=(p-t). Does the seller pay the whole $10 of the tax burden? How much does the seller pay? How much does the buyer pay? Why do they split the burden this way?
