      The first computer was the human hand. Fully digital in the literal sense.

      Others had base 10.

    Error free? Integers yes, but nonintegers contains errors and these adds up quickly, making this device almost useless. It has to be restarted very often, to keep the accumulated error small. By restarting I mean, entering fresh, correct, rounded numbers, calculated by hand.
    Numerical example: using six decimals, the smallest constant has an error of half a millionth. This doubles for each turn of the crank.

    lol I think that if this machine was adopted, and people continued to improve on mechanical computers, it could've reached 1950's levels of computing before the old tube computers were ever invented.
    I see no reason to think that it couldn't be used to play some simple games. Not video games, but some kind of geared computer controlled game, anyways.

      Actually, the same kind of technology was used in US Navy's mechanical fire control computers which would calculate fire solutions and even direct the guns at their targets in real time. There's a 1953 Navy training film on TH-cam showing how its parts worked -- th-cam.com/video/gwf5mAlI7Ug/w-d-xo.html .

      Indeed they were *designed* for calculations, but have you ever wonder why people like Ada so much? That's because she realized much more could be done. Things far more interesting than mere calculations. Really, I struggle to understand why you would be more interested in a banal calculation than something more involved, like a game which requires many calculations on top complex logic.
