What He Achieved In Math  He created the difference engine.  At the age of thirty he received a advanced mathematics degree.  His first model of the difference engine never generated a wrong answer  Babbage worked out the first speedometer.  Never finished his second difference engine.  First model could only do 6-8 digits.

How we use his math today!  Our small caculator is basically his difference engine  We use his ideas to make our modern computer
