• In order to solve all kind of numerical problems, “MechanicalCalculators” were created.

Pascaline (1642). Created by Pascal to help his fatherit was focused solving commercial arithmetic problems. Itcould add and subtract directly and multiply and divide byrepetition.

Stepped Reckoner (1694.) By Gottfried Leibniz. Basedon the Leibniz Wheel.
