From Hostgator Page: For International Women’s Day, we're celebrating the brilliant Philadelphia women who programmed America’s first computer.
Kathleen McNulty, Frances Bilas, Betty Jean Jennings, Ruth Lichterman, Elizabeth Snyder, and Marlyn Wescoff programmed the first all-electronic, programmable computer, also known as the ENIAC.
ENIAC was hand-programmed to run calculations for ballistics trajectories during WW2 using only logical diagrams. When ENIAC was unveiled to the public in 1946 however, the women behind the project were left out of the history books.
“Not only did they program the ENIAC, the first all-electronic, digital computer during WWII without manuals or programming languages, but they dedicated years after the war to making programming easier and more accessible for all of us who followed” - Kathy Kleiman
For more information on their amazing accomplishments, check out the ENIAC Programmers Project at eniacprogrammers.org.
