In her teenage years, her mathematical talents led her to work and become friends with the British mathematician Charles Babbage who is also known as "the father of computers". She was particularly interested in Charles' work on the Analytical Engine.
iIn one of her notes, she described an algorithm for the Analytical Engine to compute Bernoulli numbers. That is considered to be one of the first published alogrithms ever specifically for implementation on a computer. That is why Ada has been called the first computer programmer.
