<h4>Charles Babbage (1822)</h4>
<p>Charles Babbage was an English mathematician and inventor known as the "father of the computer." He
designed the Analytical Engine, a mechanical computer concept, and the Difference Engine, a
calculator, both pioneering devices in the history of computing. While his machines were never fully
built in his lifetime, his visionary ideas laid the foundation for modern computers. Babbage's work
continues to influence the field of computer science to this day.</p>
</div>
<div class="itinfo2">
<h4>Ada Lovelace (1840)</h4>
<p>Ada Lovelace was an English mathematician and writer recognized as the world's first computer
programmer. She made history by creating the world's first computer program for Charles Babbage's
Analytical Engine, a pioneering mechanical computer. Lovelace's work laid the foundation for modern
computer programming, and the language "Ada" is named in her honor.</p>
</div>
<div class="itinfo3">
<h4>Grace Hopper (1943)</h4>
<p>Grace Hopper was a pioneering American computer scientist and naval officer. She played a crucial
role in the development of early computer systems and is credited with popularizing the term "bug"
for computer glitches. Hopper also helped create the first compiler, a fundamental tool for modern
software development. She was a trailblazer for women in technology and had a significant impact on
the field of computer science.</p>
</div>
<div class="itinfo4">
<h4>William Shockley (1947)</h4>
<p>William Shockley was an American physicist and co-inventor of the transistor, a crucial component in
modern electronics. His work at Bell Labs in the 1940s revolutionized the electronics industry and
laid the foundation for the development of microelectronics and the information age. Shockley's
contributions to science and technology earned him the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1956.</p>
