Beschreibung

Meet two of Victorian London's greatest geniuses. Ada Lovelace, daughter of Lord Byron, mathematician, gambler, and proto-programmer, whose writings contained the first ever appearance of general computing theory, a hundred years before an actual computer was built. And Charles Babbage, eccentric inventor of the Difference Engine, an enormous clockwork calculating machine that would have been the first computer. An unexpected and hilarious adventure.
