　　A

　　Ada Byron was the daughter of the British poet Lord Byron and Anne Isabelle Mibanke,who separated from Byron just a month after Ada was born.Four months later,Byron left England forever.Ada never met her father and was raised by her mother.Lady Byron wished her daughter to be unlike her poetical father,and she insisted that Ada study mathematics.Ada’s potential for mathematics became apparent as early as 1828,when she produced the design for a flying machine.It was mathematics that gave her life its wings.

　　Ada met Babbage in 1833,when she was just 18,and they began to write to each other to discuss with each other on the topics of mathematics,logic,and finally all subjects.Babbage was famous as the inventor of a calculating machine.In 1842,an Italian mathematician,Louis Menebrea,published a memoir(学术论文集)in French on the subject of the Analytical Engine.Babbage asked Ada to translate it.During a nine-month period in 1842-1843,she worked hard on the memoir and a set of notes she added to it.She was considered as the first to create the world’s computer programme.

　　In 1835,Ada married William King,who was ten years older than her.Ada had three children.The family and its fortunes were very much controlled by Lady Byron,whose domineering(专横的)manner was rarely opposed by King.
