What is Electromechanical Calculator History about?

Leonardo Torres Quevedo designed an electromechanical calculating machine in 1914 that could automatically calculate formulas for sequences of variable values. The machine was controlled by a read-only program and introduced floating-point arithmetic. In 1920, Torres presented the Electromechanical Arithmometer in Paris, which consisted of an arithmetic unit connected to a remote typewriter to type commands and print results, demonstrating the feasibility of an electromechanical analytical engine.
