Electro-Mechanical Computers were used before first generation of computers.
First generation computers were built with vacuum tubes. The capabilities were about the same as that of modern computers, except limited by very small memories and slow speed. Typical first generation computer memory cost from $2 to $20 per byte equivalent, whereas today's computer memory costs less than a micro-penny per byte.
It depends on how you define 1st generation. The earliest computers were mechanical, and the size of a fairly large room. We then had electrical computers, like the Enigma encryption device, about the size of a large typewriter. 1st generation electronic devices were quite big - about 4 filing cabinets, with the first generation of 'home' computers being about the size we have now, but using CRT monitors.
First Generation Computers refer to ones with vacuum tubes and were really huge and required vast amounts of electricity. The programming was very limited and very complex USN machine language. Usually they were hardwired and the applications very limited. Second Generation Computer were built using transistors that were much smaller and required less power and space. General Purpose program languages were developed that could be moved from 1 computer to the next.
No difference really, they still take 1's and 0's and make mathematical calculations corresponding to their instruction sets (CPU). What is DONE with that has changed dramatically tho, with every new generation, and that's about the only real difference...well besides the darn size thing. Any more of an answer would be doing your test for you, and take far more room than this page offers. 1st generation computers used vacuum tubes. This generation spanned roughly 1940s to 1958. Today's generation uses very complicated integrated circuits. It started no earlier than the 1990s. A typical single IC from a modern computer contains several orders of magnitude more components than an entire 1st generation computer occupying an entire room, and runs at speeds unimaginable in the 1st generation.

The UNIVAC and ENIAC computers are examples of first-generation computing devices. Computers employing vacuum tubes are known as first-generation computers. THESE WOULD OCCUPY A 1800 SQUARE FEET. IT WOULD CONTAIN 18000 VACCUM TUBES AND CONSUME A LARGE POWER
The coolant capacity of the 1st generation Mitsubishi Outlander from 2003 to 2006 is 7.0 liter (including condense tank)

1st : BSPT-1D 2nd : SPC of Davao 3rd : Awesome computers 4th : Embedded computers 5th : None of the above
The 1st generation computers consisted of vacuum tubes and then came the transistors after that integrated circuits and then it came the microprocessors. -vikas ,the computer geek
The iPhone 2nd generation
NO
1st generation, 2nd generation, 3rd generation, and the current model- 4th generation.
The difference between the 1st and 3rd generation iPod is slightly different. the cases will still work, the difference between the two generations is that the 3rd generation is slightly slimmer than the 1st generation.

No. It would be a third generation programming language.
