Week 7-8: CoralDraw

A person who was good at performing numerical calculations was called a human computer much before computers came into being. The use of mechanical calculating devices made his task less demanding. The use of punched paper cards to run jacquard looms came up around 1800. The development of transistors followed by microprocessors based on integrated circuits led to the size of the computers becoming smaller and its price also came down.  
Designing with computers is called computer aided designing (CAD) and textile designing with computers is called computer aided textile designing (CATD). 
Designing with computers offers so many advantages that engineers, technologists, professionals and so many others make use of them in their everyday work.
