We are happy to celebrate Ada Lovelace Day, intended to bring blogging attention to women excelling in technology. Augusta Ada Byron was the daughter of the poet Lord Byron, arguably the world's first programmer (to manipulate Babbage's unbuilt analytical engine), and the inspiration for the Ada programming language.
In particular, she is credited with writing out a method for calculating Beroulli numbers on Babbage's machine.
