Her mother did everything possible to prevent her daughter from growing up like her father - the vicious, mad and dangerous Lord Byron, the greatest romantic poet of the 19th century. To protect the girl from the poison of poetry and romanticism, Annabella, Lady Byron, will turn her only child into one of the most educated people in the country. If it were not for stereotypes and prejudices, Ada Byron, married Lady Lovelace, would probably have become an outstanding mathematician. But she became the first programmer in history. Her mentor was no less mad and brilliant than her father, Charles Babbage, the creator of the first mechanical computer: Babbage's analytical engine.
