Lady Lovelace Strikes Again

Lady Lovelace Strikes Again

[Charles H. Sampson]

It's not the Countess as we know her, but she still gets credit for
something to do with computing: http://tinyurl.com/yamndo3g.

I'm not intending to open a political discussion.

If this has been posted before, my apologies.
