Ada Lovelace citáty

Augusta Ada King-Noel, grófka Lovelace známa tiež ako Ada Lovelace bola anglická matematička. Je známa predovšetkým vďaka tomu, že detailne opísala fungovanie Babbageovho mechanického počítača. Medzi jej poznámkami k analytickému stroju bol i algoritmus na výpočet Bernoulliho čísiel, ktorý je považovaný za prvý algoritmus spracovateľný počítačom. Je označovaná ako prvá počítačová programátorka.Bola jediným legitímnym potomkom anglo-škótskeho spisovateľa George Gordona Byrona. Zomrela ako tridsaťšesťročná potom, ako jej lekár pustil žilou kvôli komplikáciám s rakovinou. Zanechala po sebe dvoch synov a jednu dcéru, lady Anne Bluntovou, ktorá je známa ako spoluzakladateľka chovu arabských koní v Európe.

V roku 1979 po nej americké ministerstvo obrany pomenovalo programovací jazyk Ada. Wikipedia

Ada Lovelace: Citáty v angličtine

“God has not given to us (in this state of existence) more than very limited powers of expression of one's ideas and feelings”

Kontext: Circumstances have been such, that I have lived almost entirely secluded for some time. Those who are much in earnest and with single minds devoted to any great object in life, must find this occasionally inevitable.... You will wonder at having heard nothing from me; but you have experience and candour enough to perceive and know that God has not given to us (in this state of existence) more than very limited powers of expression of one's ideas and feelings... I shall be very desirous of again seeing you. You know what that means from me, and that it is no form, but the simple expression and result of the respect and attraction I feel for a mind that ventures to read direct in God's own book, and not merely thro' man's translation of that same vast and mighty work.

In a letter to Andrew Crosse, as quoted in Eugen Kölbing's Englische Studien, Volume 19 https://archive.org/stream/englischestudien19leipuoft#page/157/mode/1up (1894), Leipzig; O.R. Reisland, "Byron's Daughter", p. 157.

“I do not regret the sufferings and peculiaties of my physical constitution. They have taught me, and continue to teach me, that which I think nothing else could have developed. It is a force and control put upon me by Providence which I must obey. And the effects of this continual disciple of facts are mighty. They tame the in the best sense of that word, and they fan into existence a pure, bright, holy, unselfish flame within that sheds cheerfulness and light on many.”

Kontext: With all my wiry power and strength, I am prone at times to bodily sufferings, connected chiefly with the digestive organs, of no common degree or king. I do not regret the sufferings and peculiaties of my physical constitution. They have taught me, and continue to teach me, that which I think nothing else could have developed. It is a force and control put upon me by Providence which I must obey. And the effects of this continual disciple of facts are mighty. They tame the in the best sense of that word, and they fan into existence a pure, bright, holy, unselfish flame within that sheds cheerfulness and light on many.
— Ever yours truly. "A. A. Lovelace."
