ENIAC - Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer)[1][2] was the first programmable, electronic, general-purpose digital computer, completed in 1945.[3][4] Other computers had some of these features, but ENIAC was the first to have them all. It was Turing-complete and able to solve "a large class of numerical problems" through reprogramming.

In 1943, six women were recruited to figure out how to program the Electronic Numerical Integrator and Computer, a.k.a. "the ENIAC," a massive computing machine commissioned by the U.S. Army that was used to calculate ballistic missile trajectories during World War II.
