| Achoimre: | Leaving aside the work of Ada Lovelace—the 19th century countess who
devised algorithms for Charles Babbage’s never-completed Analytical
Engine—computer programming has existed as a human endeavor for less
than one human lifetime: it has been only 68 years since Konrad Zuse
unveiled his Z3 electro-mechanical computer in 1941, the first working
general-purpose computer. And it’s been only 64 years since six women—
Kay Antonelli, Jean Bartik, Betty Holberton, Marlyn Meltzer, Frances
Spence, and Ruth Teitelbaum—were pulled from the ranks of the U.S.
Army’s “computer corps”, the women who computed ballistics tables by
hand, to become the first programmers of ENIAC, the first general-purpose
electronic computer. There are many people alive today—the leading edge
of the Baby Boom generation and all of the Boomers’ parents—who were
born into a world without computer programmers. |
