4. Women in Computer Science
Margaret Hamilton
She was director of the Software Engineering Division of the MIT Instrumentation Laboratory, which developed on-board
flight software for NASA's Apollo program.
Kathleen Booth
Kathleen Booth wrote the first assembly language and designed the assembler and autocode for the first computer systems
at Birkbeck College, University of London
Barbara Liskov
Liskov has led many significant projects, including the Venus operating system, a small, low-cost timesharing system; the
design and implementation of CLU; The syntax of CLU was based on ALGOL, Argus, the first high-level language to support
implementation of distributed programs and to demonstrate the technique of promise pipelining; and Thor, an
object-oriented database system.
Ada Lovelace
Methematician. Ada Lovelace emphasised the difference between the Analytical Engine and previous calculating machines,
particularly its ability to be programmed to solve problems of any complexity
Grace Hopper
Hopper's belief that programs should be written in a language that was close to English (rather than in machine code or in
languages close to machine code, such as assembly languages) was captured in the new business language, and COBOL
went on to be the most ubiquitous business language to date.

TLDR: don’t use static variables; favour val instead of var and try to write common logic
between test suites
