Extract the answer to the question from the following context. Question: Wnat method made work possible in z2 computers Context: Early digital computers were electromechanical; electric switches drove mechanical relays to perform the calculation. These devices had a low operating speed and were eventually superseded by much faster all-electric computers, originally using vacuum tubes. The Z2, created by German engineer Konrad Zuse in 1939, was one of the earliest examples of an electromechanical relay computer.
The answer to this question is:
electric switches drove mechanical relays to perform the calculation
