Who invented the modern calculator?

            Several inventors created ' adding devices'. Blaise Pascal devised a machine in 1642, which worked by turning dials, and Charles Babbage invented a 'computer' in 1834, which was a huge machine for solving maths problems. However, it was US company Texas Instrument who brought the modern, hand-held calculator to the market in 1967.
