The above link discusses what should be counted as a computer and mentions the the mechanically based operation of the memory in the Z4, and it not using a stored program so perhaps it should not thought of as the first computer- the link discusses this in some detail.
:That link discusses a first stored-program computer, not a first computer (there's a difference).

message: The article makes the claim that "In 1950/1951, the Z4 was the only working digital computer in continental Europe". BARK (computer) became operational on April 28, 1950, but it wasn't a commercial available computer. It probably needs clarification. // Liftarn (talk) 14:14, 16 August 2018 (UTC)
