DESCRIPTION:Join the University in its Ada Lovelace celebrations and help
  improve the gender diversity of Wikipedia.\n\nMathematician Ada Lovelac
 e has  long-been recognised as one of the first computer programmers fro
 m her involvement in work carried out in the 1800s. Since 2009\, her con

 raise the profile of women in science\, technology\, engineering\, and m
