Ada Lovelace: The First Computer Programmer Content Source: Mentafloss, Wikipedia Ada Lovelace  has been called the world’s first computer programmer. What she did was write the world’s first machine algorithm for an early computing machine that existed only on paper. Of course, someone had to be the first, but Lovelace was a woman, and this was in the 1840s. Lovelace was a brilliant mathematician, thanks in part to opportunities that were denied most women of the time. Ada Byron was a teenager when she met Cambridge mathematics professor Charles Babbage, who had invented the Difference Engine, a mechanical computer designed to produce mathematical tables automatically and error-free. Babbage never built the actual machine due to personal setbacks and financing difficulty. By 1834 he had moved on to design his Analytical Engine, the first general purpose computer, which used punch cards for input and output. This machine also lacked financing and was never built.

Many Users, Developers and Programmers are using Computer and they know how to format or install OS in system but very less users know this fact that Why window is always in default drive C ? Here is answer of this question which come in mind every users or computer operator . Default drive C  is associated with the traditional floppy drives. Earlier than tough hard drive have become preferred(1980), floppy disks were used for booting the computers. Those had been available in sizes at that point: 51/4” and 31/2″. Those two floppy disk drives had been labelled as local Disk (A) and nearby Disk (B). After the discovery of hard disk, floppy disk of size eight inch got here into life. The difficult disk drive turned into named C. As soon as tough disks became widespread and floppy disks have become out of date, the power names A and B vanished.
