Ada Lovelace
Ada Lovelace was an English mathematician and writer, recognized as one of the first computer programmers. Her work on Charles Babbage's early mechanical general-purpose computer, the Analytical Engine, included the first algorithm intended for implementation on a machine. Lovelace's visionary ideas about computing and her foresight into the potential of computers as more than mere calculation tools have made her a key figure in the history of computer science.
