Historically, it is known that women had an important role in computing. History lessons on computer science narrate that women were the first software engineers until men actively pushed them out. Ada Lovelace in 1843 became the first computer programmer by designing the first computer algorithm. Hedy Lamarr invented the frequency-hopping technology, which was important to the invention of wireless signals. In 1952, Rear Hopper created one of the world’s first compilers. Adele Goldberg was one of the seven programmers that developed Smalltalk in the 1970’s among others.
