As analog and later transistor-based computers started to be developed, they replaced the jobs of human computers in calculating and tabulating numbers.

Eventually digital computers provided ways to simulate complicated “analog” systems without the need for individual op amps and analog computers. It's interesting to look at old analog computers and ...

Differences of very tiny voltages matter tremendously in an analog computer, and it is exactly analog’s amazing demand for precision that ended up killing off the analog computers in the end.
