Ada lovelace accomplishments

Answer 1

Thanks to Mr. Babbage, Ada was able to open her mind to wonderous things and ideas. Though she didn't actually invent the Difference engine (calculator) or Analytical Engine (computer) or any other fancy device, she was actually given the part credit for it. She understood and helped Mr. Babbage explain his inventions to other people. He wasn't good at that, and Lovelace was a great help. If it wasn't for her, nobody would have understood what he was getting at: the calculator and the computer.

Another time, when an Italian reporter wrote an article on Babbage's invention, Ada translated it. When she showed it to Babbage, he suggested that she add her own notes and explanations. This actually improved the article by making it more intersting, though three times longer than the original.

Ada dreamed of how the Analytical Engine could be "programmed" to calculate certain numbers; this work has been called the first computer program, and in consequence she has been called the first computer programmer. When her lost works were recovered a century later, her designs resembled that of a modern day computer. And for that, thank you, Lady Lovelace.
