She worked with Charles Babbage who had designed some mechanical machines. She was in effect writing programs in that she was manipulating symbols according to rules for a machines that Babbage was designing. She also foresaw the capability of computers to do more than calculations.

What did Ada Byron do in computering?

Ada Lovelace was the illegitimate daughter of the poet Lord Byron. She married the Count of Lovelace, making her a "Lady" and the Countess of Lovelace. She became a mathematician and worked with Charles Babbage, the developer of the Analytic Engine (mechanical computer). She wrote a text on the development of instructions for the engine even though Babbage would not publish his ideas until years later. The Analytic Engine was never built until recently. She was therefore , in a way, the first computer programmer, inventor of the subroutine and a proponent of looping. Her role in the development of the Difference Engine is not clear. She is often credited with logic involved in its operation if not its construction. Evidence does support her suggestion for the transfer of the existing punch card system of the Jacquard loom as a method of entering data and controlling the devices operation if it were to be built.


How long did it take for Ada to make the computers?

Ada Lovelace (1815-1852) (the only legitimate child of the famous British - poet Lord Byron) did not make computers. She is credited however with writing the first computer program.


Who proved that a machine capable of processing a stream of 1s and 0s was capable of solving any problem?

Hmm not sure but I do know that Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace created the first big computer that could add and subtract and many other things. Ada Lovelace wrote the first computer code I think but that doesn't really answer your question.


What does automatar toy mean?

Automata are like robots, but they are entirely mechanical (no elctrical circuits or logic). They were effectively the first type of robots, and were made by several ancient civilisations.


Who in vented the first computer?

In 1837, Charles Babbage, a British professor of mathematics described his idea for the Analytical Engine, the first stored-program mechanical computer. The Analytical Engine was designed to be powered by a steam engine and was to use Punched Cards, which was used to program mechanical looms at the time.

Who made the first code?

The first code is often attributed to Ada Lovelace, who created the first algorithm intended for implementation on Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine in the mid-1800s. While her work laid the groundwork for modern programming, earlier forms of coding included simple mechanical codes and ciphers used for communication. Lovelace's contributions are recognized as foundational in the development of computer science and programming.
