With the development of transistors and their use in circuits, magnetic care for memory stronger, the vacuum tubes of first generation are replaced by transistors to arrive at second generation of compoters. The size of transistors is much smaller when compared to vacuum tubes. They consumed less power generated less in heat and are faster and reliable.
Even the cost of transistors is less in comparison with the cost of vacuum tubes, the cost of computer reduced drastically, they were more reliable then first generation computers. Gotten, COBOL, snowbal, algol etc. Like high level languages are developed in this generation. In this generation they are using magnetic tapes for storing.
