~{Thesis}~
Ada Lovelace is a mathematician who was interested in Charles Babbage's work, Charles Babbage is a mathematician and also an inventor. In 1833, When they met Charles Babbage's was still developing his second machine the Analytical Engine, Ada Lovelace helped work on the machine and with her notes that she wrote with a translates of an article from another engineer inventor. The notes helped the making of the Analytical Engine progresses more but was never exactly finished at the end. Although Ada Lovelace didn’t do much in the making of the Analytical Engine she however was the first to discover about programming systems in an order using things other than numbers and with her notes and papers she thought of the future of machines becoming the founder of programming, also using her name as the programming language.

~{Background}~
In Piccadilly Terrace, Middlesex [Now London], Augusta Ada Byron was born on December 10, 1815. Her father George Gordon Byron or Load Byron was a romanitc poet who married Annabella Milbanke Byron, a philanthropist and also an abolitionist. However a month or so after Augusta Ada Byron was born her parents had separated and about four months or so later Lord Byron, Ada’s father left England and never returned [Load Byron died in Greece 1823.] Annabella Milbanke Byron or Lady Byron Ada’s mother wished that Ada would not be like her father and so raised Ada by herself independently.
~{Build-Up}~
Ada’s childhood was not traditional like the others, her mother lady Byron or Annabella Milbanke had Ada do mathematical training in private by professeres from top schools which was unusual topic for women to learn at that time, however Ada's health was not always stable making her be somewhat always ill at times but with her sharp mind she used her time to study languages and numbers in bed. Later on Lady Byron and Ada moved to a rich London society where the men would spend their time and fortunes on plants, nature, and space related topices. At the age of 17 in 1833, Ada meet Charles Babbage from a friend, Charles Babbage was a mathematician and inventor who was said to be “The Father of Computers”.
~{Main Event}~
When Ada meet Charles Babbage, he was still developing his Analytical Engine a theoretical precursor his second machine which was not that favorable with other inventors because Charles had never finished his first machine. In 1835, Augusta Ada Byron married William King and three years later in 1838 William King and Augusta Ada Byron were given the title of Earl and Countess of Lovelace. Later on Ada lovelace and Charles Babbage became great friends and Ada was given an article from Charles as the article was in French by an Italian engineer named Luigi Federico Menabrea. While translating the papers Ada lovelace was invited to add her own notes, when finally she was done the article was three times bigger and had many ideas which she understound the machine much better then the original creator.

~{Short-Term}~
At the time when Charles Babbage received the translated papers back from Ada he used them to better the Analytical Engine. In the notes she wrote that the programming for the Analytical Engine could follow lists of instructions that could work with things other then numbers, like processing notes for music, letters, and maybe even pictures. Charles Babbage was so impressed with Ada that Charles then began to call her the title “The Enchartness of Numbers”.
