• Lovelace was tutored in mathematics and science – subjects often forbidden for girls at the time – at the insistence of her mother
• At 17, she met Charles Babbage ("the father of the computer"), and worked with him on developing the Analytical Engine. The algorithm they developed for this machine has been recognized as the first computer algorithm ever made. The Analytical Engine incorporated an arithmetic logic unit and control flow in the form of conditional branching and loops and integrated memory. The machine is considered Turing Complete
