The ENIAC, one of the world's first general-purpose electronic computers, was completed in 1945 and could perform 5,000 additions per second — revolutionary at the time. It weighed 30 tons, occupied a room the size of a house, and required 18,000 vacuum tubes. A modern smartphone performs billions of calculations per second and fits in your pocket.
