As a child, Ada Lovelace had a big imagination and a talent for mathematics. She grew up in a noble household in England, where she dedicated herself to studying. Her work with the famous inventor, Charles Babbage, on a very early kind of computer made her the world's first computer programmer. And in her writing, she imagined our computer age: a time in which computers don't just calculate numbers, but assist people in creating all sorts of marvelous things.
