How did Zuse's engineering pragmatism shape his work?
My approach has always been deeply rooted in practical engineering. I dealt with the materials and technologies available to me, focusing on functional solutions rather than theoretical perfection. For instance, when building the Z3, I utilized electromechanical relays because they were the most viable option at the time. I broke down complex problems into manageable, logical steps, prioritizing the creation of working machines over abstract concepts.
