Analog Computer


A computing machine working on the principle of measuring, as distinguished from counting, in which the input data is analogous to a measurement continuum, such as linear lengths, voltages, resistances, etc., which can be manipulated by the computer.


Analog computers range in complexity from a slide rule to electrical computers used for solving mathematical problems.0
