Solution

The correct option is A Storage program concept

ENIAC was the computer of Storage program concept.

ENIAC was amongst the earliest electronic general-purpose computers made. It was Turing-complete, digital and able to solve "a large class of numerical problems" through reprogramming.

Stored-program concept. ... The idea was introduced in the late 1940s by John von Neumann, who proposed that a program be electronically stored in binary-number format in a memory device so that instructions could be modified by the computer as determined by intermediate computational results.

stored program concept. The fundamental computer architecture in which the computer acts upon (executes) internally stored instructions. This enormous flexibility is why billions of computer CPUs are used for everything.

The stored program concept means that data and instructions are both logically the same and can both be stored in memory. The von Neumann architecture is built around this principle. It is important because the human does not have to execute instruction from without the machine.

It was the first stored-program computer in the U.S. ETL Mark III, which began development in 1954 and was completed in 1956, was the first stored-program transistor computer. It was created by Japan's Electrotechnical Laboratory.
