Augusta Ada Lovelace born in 1815, is a gravely underestimated woman in history. A mathematician and artist, born after Newton and before Einstein, she posed the notion of material and mind are more intimately related that was thought at her time. Known as the first computer programmer, and, only since 2009, she has been recognized annually on October 15th to highlight the often overlooked contributions of women to math and science. Lovelace died of cancer at 36, and it took nearly a century after her death for people to appreciate her notes on Babbage’s Analytical Engine, which became recognised as the first description for computer and software, ever.
