Lord Byron’s daughter and The First Computer Program

Ada Lovelace was an English author and mathematician who was one of the first to recognize that an invention by Charles Babbage could have uses far beyond the simple computation of numbers. The History Guy remembers poetry, mathematics, and Lovelace who was, among her other accomplishments, Lord Byron's daughter.
