A long time ago‚ the daughter of Lord Byron‚ better known as the Countess Ada King of Lovelace encoded a set of rules to be followed that was to be processed by a device called the Analytical Engine. Thus‚ Countess Lovelace penned the first source code‚ which in turn became the first computer program. Today‚ the source flows around us‚ penetrates our daily lives‚ wraps itself around our democratic processes and binds our world together.

Design of computers In 1812 he was sitting in his rooms in the Analytical Society looking at a table of logarithms‚ which he knew to be full of mistakes‚ when the idea occurred to him of computing all tabular functions by machinery. The French government had produced several tables by a new method. Three or four of their mathematicians decided how to compute the tables‚ half a dozen more broke down the operations into simple stages‚ and the work itself‚ which was restricted to addition and subtraction
