Amaya Toman Uma igama elithi "spreadsheet" kushiwo, abantu abaningi bacabanga nge-Excel, Izinombolo, noma i-Google AmaSpredishithi. Kodwa ukugwinya kokuqala kule ndlela kwakuwuhlelo lwe-VisiCalc eminyakeni engamashumi ayisikhombisa ekhulwini elidlule, isingeniso sayo esizosikhumbula namuhla. Engxenyeni yesibili ye-athikili yethu, sizobuyela ku-1997, lapho i-computer Deep Blue inqoba umkhulu we-chess uGarry Kasparov.

Sethula i-VisiCalc (1979)
NgoMeyi 11, 1979, izici ze-VisiCalc zethulwa okokuqala esidlangalaleni. Lezi zici ziboniswe nguDaniel Bricklin noRobert Frankston baseHarvard University. I-VisiCalc (leli gama lisebenza njengesifinyezo segama elithi "isibali esibonakalayo") kwakuyispredishithi sokuqala, ngenxa yokuthi amathuba okusebenza ngamakhompiyutha, kanye nokusetshenziswa kwawo, akhula kakhulu eminyakeni engamashumi ayisikhombisa ekhulwini elidlule. I-VisiCalc yasatshalaliswa ngabakwaPersonal Software Inc. (kamuva i-VisiCorp), kanye ne-VisiCalc ekuqaleni yayihloselwe amakhompyutha we-Apple II. Kamuva, izinguqulo zamakhompyutha we-Commodore PET kanye ne-Atari nazo zabona ukukhanya kosuku.

UGarry Kasparov vs. Okuluhlaza okwesibhakabhaka okujulile (1997)
NgoMeyi 11, 1997, kwaba nomdlalo we-chess phakathi kukaGrandmaster Garry Kasparov kanye nekhompyutha ye-Deep Blue, eyayivela eshabhu yenkampani ye-IBM. UKasparov, owayedlala ngezicucu ezimnyama, wabe esewuqeda umdlalo ngemuva kweminyaka eyishumi nesishiyagalolunye kuphela. Ikhompuyutha ye-Deep Blue yayinamandla okucabanga ukuya phambili, okubikwa ukuthi kwamkhungathekisa uKasparov futhi waphuma ekamelweni ngemva kwehora. U-Kasparov waqala ukubhekana nekhompyutha i-Deep Blue ngo-1966, ewina i-4: 2. I-IBM Deep Blue chess supercomputer yayinamandla okuhlola izikhundla ezifika ezigidini ezingu-200 ngomzuzwana, ukunqoba kwayo i-Kasparov kwakubhekwa njengesenzakalo esiyingqopha-mlando emlandweni we-chess namakhompyutha. . Izitha zidlale imidlalo emibili ehlukene, umdlalo ngamunye kwaba yimidlalo eyisithupha.
