Writing of British mathematician Ada Lovelace, fully named Augusta Ada King, countess of Lovelace, on analytical machine of Charles Babbage provides an early explanation of the principles of programming and explores the potential of computers to manipulate mathematical and non-mathematical information.

People know Augusta Ada King-Noel, born the honorable daughter of Lord Byron, chiefly for her association with the analytical engine, a proto-computer. Often regarded, she published the first algorithm.

After Ada Lovelace, people named Ada, the programming language, developed, similar to Pascal, for the Department of defense of the United States.

Ada Lovelace

“I am in a charming state of confusion.”
Ada Lovelace

“The Analytical Engine weaves algebraic patterns, just as the Jacquard loom weaves flowers and leaves.”
Ada Lovelace
