The early foundations of what would become computer science predate the invention of the modern digital computer. Machines for calculating fixed numerical tasks‚ such as the abacus‚ have existed since antiquity. Wilhelm Schickard built the first mechanical calculator in 1623.[4] Charles Babbage designed a difference engine in Victorian times (between 1837 and 1901)[5] helped by Ada Lovelace.[6] Around 1900‚ the IBM corporation sold punch-card machines.[7] However‚ all of these machines were constrained

HISTORY & NATURE OF THE GAME Basketball was invented in 1891 by James Naismith; a Canadian teacher. It was first played with a soccer-style ball and peach baskets as the goals.

SUMMARY OF FRICTION The maximum force of static friction that exists between two surfaces is proportional to the normal force and mostly independent of area of contact. This situation is shown here: N = the total normal force (force perpendicular to the horizontal surface) which is essentially the weight of the object. The coefficient in that equation is called the coeffecient of static friction and that depends on the material: When the object is actually moving‚ the friction is said to be kinetic
