Who was the first woman to invent?

Since a computer can only be invented once, you would be better off asking who was the first person to invent computers. In 1939, John V. Atanasoff and Clifford Berry developed the Atanasoff-Berry Computer (ABC) at Iowa State University, which was regarded as the first electronic digital computer. So, in short, it was a man, not a woman, which is understandable based on the attitude towards women in the workplace and in school in the early 20th century and earlier. It would be very hard for anybody, man or woman, to invent something when they were not allowed to attend college.
