Happy birthday to Ada Lovelace (1815-1852), who published the first computer program. She worked together with Charles Babbage, the inventor of the Difference Engine and the Analytical Engine (the first computers), correcting his notes on how to calculate Bernoulli Numbers with the Analytical Engine. 🧵⠀

As described, my linocut print shows Lady Ada, based on engravings made during her lifetime, printed in purple, before gears of the Charles Babbage Analytical Engine, based on one of his blueprints, printed in bronze. Depicted around the gears are equations relating how to calculate Bernoulli Numbers.
