Columbia retrospective revisits programming the original ENIAC
Original: Programming the ENIAC (2011)
A 2011 Columbia University piece on programming the ENIAC, one of the first general-purpose electronic computers, is drawing fresh attention. The article recounts how early programmers, many of them women mathematicians, had to physically rewire the machine rather than write software in the modern sense, offering a rare window into the origins of computing.
Why now: Interest in computing history resurfaces periodically as engineers and enthusiasts revisit the field's origins.
