Dear List,
There is a very nice and copyright free bio of Peirce from NOAA that I
have copied into Panopedia for reference here:
http://www.panopedia.org/index.php/Charles_Sanders_Peirce#NOAA_Giants_of_Science
The article is unattributed and makes the following claim, that Peirce
was:
" ... first to conceive the design and theory of an electric
switching computer"
Now, I am not familiar with this claim - can anyone justify it with
references? Better still, can anyone identify the author?
With respect,
Steven
