It started with a math problem.  That problem brought on the challenge of more complex math problems.  Humans were performing these complex math problems using various methods.  Then came the abacus:  a simple instrument designed to aid in performing mathematical calculations.  One might say that this is where computer training began:  the first teacher training the first student on the operation of the abacus. 

Many years hence, other devices were created to aid in mathematical computations, yet the original ‘computer’ - the abacus - remained.  Through the aid of electronics came the first computer.  This first computer could fill a room.  In fact, there are many from that era in use to this day:  they still fill a room.  The purpose of the first computer was to complete complex mathematical operations in little or no time.
