A. Generation of Computers
      Five generation of computers
1)                  1st generation [1951-58]: - 1st generation of computers uses the vacuum tubes, low memory of the computer and slow processing.
2)                  2nd generation [1958-64]: - vacuum tubes replaced with transistors. To improve the computer memory and speed.
3)                  3rd generation [1964-71]: - Transistors replaced with IC (Instigated circuits) to improve the computer memory and speed and install computer languages.
4)                  4th Generation [1971-82]: - IC replaced with LSIC (Large scale instigated circuits).
5)                  5th Generation [1982-onwords]: - LSIC replaced with VLSIC (very large scale instigated circuits). To improve the computer memory and speed.
