ENIAC ( Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer) was the first electronic general-purpose computer. It was Turing-complete, digital, and capable of being reprogrammed to solve a full range of computing problems.

ENIAC was designed to calculate artillery firing tables for the United States Army's Ballistic Research Laboratory. When ENIAC was announced in 1946 it was heralded in the press as a "Giant Brain". It boasted speeds one thousand times faster than electro-mechanical machines, a leap in computing power that no single machine has since matched. This mathematical power, coupled with general-purpose programmability, excited scientists and industrialists. The inventors promoted the spread of these new ideas by conducting a series of lectures on computer architecture.
ENIAC was conceived and designed by John Mauchly and J. Presper Eckert of the University of Pennsylvania. The team of design engineers assisting the development included Robert F. Shaw (function tables), Jeffrey Chuan Chu (divider/square-rooter), Thomas Kite Sharpless (master programmer), Arthur Burks (multiplier), Harry Huskey (reader/printer) and Jack Davis (accumulators). ENIAC was named an IEEE Milestone in 1987.

Quiz #14

Good­ Evening Bros, Today is ART WEEKEND so, Ready :­ Today's art weekend consists of: PENCIL TECHNIQUE DRAWING; Take a photo(send at least two photos of the same drawing, in case on looks clearer than the 1st shot) of a drawing made with pencil technique. The drawing must be about an animal you see, a character(who isn't so simple looking) or an object you like. Please do not draw landscape The secret to doing a good gradient with pencil is, as i said on a previous art contest, measure the pressure you put on the pencil vs the paper! soft pressure for light gradient, harderpresure for darker/shadow grading. Never instantly chnge between pressures, always do it gradually. When you are done placing all the shades, take a piece of cotton(the cloud looking cotton doctors use to clean your arm before an injection) and rub it on all the shaded areas, to mix it all together. Be careful not to rub it on the outlines of the drawing, or it'll look blurry. Only blur the inner/coloured areas. You can use your fingers instead of cotton, but make sure they are really dry! Clean your finger everytime you are done with an area.. never rub it all over the drawing! do it by portions! After blurring the shaded areas, you can(optional) softly but quickly start drawing soft straightand inclined lines over the darker shadow parts to generate a betterand professional finish.. My example: This is a scanned drawing! hence why it looks so clean It is recommended for non experimented people to finish thedrawing with only blurring with the cotton. If you have a good hand, apply the lines so it looks like this Personally, i only apply the blurring on a few areas that are soft shadows, and leave the rest white.. then shade whatever iwant to look darker with graded lines only. If you apply lines, make sure they go to the same directionif youll scratch big areas. INSTRUCTIONS:- Objective:Make a drawing of an animal, an object or a non-simple character with pencil. Restrictions: no landscape Technique:Photo of drawing, scan of a drawing Ways to present it:URL of the drawing(hosted on a trusty imagehosting site like imgur.com) Ways to NOT present it:If you find your character/animal/objecton the internet, Do not copythe pencil technique applied to it; i can track and find the image you found and see if you copied the technique Sign it:[/­b]leave your signatureon it(if you can)!! Not your real signature,[/­b] but write your UCF username there (examplerincessKiwi, dqc_manager, grace, sarker) Send it to me via PM: Host your picture on a safe website, take theURL, and send it to me via IMG code ona PM. CODE: [img]YOUR­ URL HERE[/img] Copy the Code SAMPLES- All these ways are ways you can present it With the camera or scanned 1) no flash, 2) flash on and 3) night mode if you have any doubt, do not hesitate to Pm me! thanks BEST OF LUCK Friends.Time keeps on Ticking! It never waits.! So Hurry Guys And Keep Playing And Remember To Send Me Your Drawing Via P.M Before MONDAYstarts, on IST time.

all beautiful drawings

congrats to all.First time i participate a pencil drawing contest and win.Thanks

vishal346

I loved this week's art quiz as I love to draw the the pencil sketch.
The way of drawing pencil sketch have always facincted me as how much pressure we must apply to get the proper shade...
Congrat's to all winner's

basel

At first, congratulations to all winners.
I've loved to draw with my pencil since i was a kid. I prefer to draw with my pencil rather than drawing with Micro soft paint as I can control my pencil far better than the controlling the mouse.
I'd like to see many art week ends like this one too.

smbhayi

Oh..... Its amazing.... Everyone gets award.... Congrats all participant.... Anyway I dont know much about pencil drawing but I knw I like drawing too much.... Its my timepass in school time (when Exam time I try to study but Im bored it and going to drawing)....

cool_momi

Congrates to Vishal,Anku,Swamy,Bassel,Smbhayi,Sulthan.This art contest was fun.

Inspired by this pic

Swamy4mind

Congratulations to all other winners !!
This picture was the first drawn imaginative sketch...But i thought it was not that good and made another ' simple' sketch....I liked both and want to show my efforts, thats why i sent both drawings. To my pleasure my imagination won against a simple one!!
Truely speaking, the pencil shading is really tough. you have to be very careful and concentrate where to apply pressure and how to apply.Kiwi sister's instructions helped me a lot .  Thanks kiwi sis and Dqc manager for this opportunity .
Please do something different everytime,i like that very much. THANK YOU

PrincessKiwi

A river is a natural watercourse,usually freshwater,flowing towards an ocean,a lake,a sea or another river.In a few cases,a river simply flows into the ground or dries up completely before reaching another body of water.Small rivers may also be called by several other names,including stream,creek,brook,rivulet,run,tributary and rill.There are no official definitions for generic terms,such as river,as applied to geographic features,although in some countries or communities a stream may be defined by its size.Many names for small rivers are specific to geographic location;one example is "burn" in Scotland and northeast England.Sometimes a river is said to be larger than a creek,but this is not always the case,because of vagueness in the language.Rivers are part of the hydrological cycle.Water within a river is generally collected from precipitation through a drainage basin from surface runoff and other sources such as groundwater recharge, springs, and the release of stored water in natural ice and snowpacks.Potamology is the scientific study of rivers.

I liked the art quiz of this dqc as it was a new attempt and it was new experience for us to do some thing new  every week in the art quiz, as we all alway's thought what will be there in today's art quiz. And also a tech related quiz was added it was also a good attempt.
Nothing bad in this season. But the only sad thing in this season is that kiwi left us...
Thank's to this season dqc manager kiwi and ankit for such good  quizes....

cool_momi

Congratez vishal and bassel.

Overall this season was great,ankit and kiwi did a great job.I liked the art contest and the new type of quiz like word scramble and hint about things to detect them.

I liked the acronyms too;but in some cases there were so many meanings for a word.My suggestion is to avoid such type of acronym.

Anyway ankit did a great job this season,great for a new manager.Sad that kiwi left us

akt255

The season was great Really , i was thinking about to post atleast 30 quizes. But when kiwi has left Ucf , i lost my totally interest in posting dqc as kiwi is who has hired me as a manager.......
Dqc is incomplete without her .
But if i talk about this season then i did some mistakes in question, answers etc .
one thing that i wanna share , its truly very hard to be a manager . When i was participater i also thought dat its easy nd i always report manager's mistakes , but when i was managing dqc then i came to know Mistakes is also part of dqc
SORRY IF ANYONE HURTS BY THIS SEASON.
Thanx -

At first, congratulations to cool_momi & vishal346, and thanks to our D.Q.C managers, akt255 (man! you were awesome, I couldn't identify your real identity. ) & PrincessKiwi (We wish if she can come back again. )
This season was excellent! I liked all the quizs, specially the art weekends, and regular quizs too, it was a little bit tricky as I always like it to be. I'd like to see much more quizs like this season's quizs next time. That's all.
