The first computer programmer

1 Ada Lovelace was the daughter of the English poet
Lord Byron. She was taught by Mary Somerville, a
well‐known researcher and scientific author, who
4 introduced her to Charles Babbage in 1833. Babbage was a
respected English mathematician and mechanical engineer
who first had the idea for a programmable computer.
7 In 1842 and 1843, Ada translated the work of an
Italian mathematician, Luigi Menabrea, on Babbage's
Analytical Engine. Babbage worked on it for many years
10 until his death in 1871. However, because of financial,
political, and legal issues the engine was never built. The
design of the machine was very modern; it anticipated the
13 first completed general‐purpose computers by about
100 years.
When Ada translated the article, she added some
16 notes which specified in detail a method for calculating
certain numbers with the Analytical Engine, which have
since been recognized by historians as the world’s first
19 computer program. She also saw possibilities in it that
Babbage hadn’t. Indeed, she recognized that the machine
had applications beyond mere calculation; composing
22 pieces of music was one of them.
