Analog computer

An analog computer is a type of computing device that processes data represented by physical quantities, such as voltage or current, rather than using discrete values like digital computers. It solves problems by simulating continuous systems, often used for tasks like modeling real-world phenomena (e.g., flight simulations or engineering calculations). Unlike digital computers, which operate using binary code (0s and 1s), analog computers can handle a range of values dynamically. While largely replaced by digital computers in most areas, they are still valuable for specific applications where real-time processing of continuous data is essential.
