English: Ida Rhodes at the National Bureau of Standards (NBS). Mathematician and computer expert Ida Rhodes worked at NBS from 1940-1975. Rhodes designed the C-10 language used by one of the earliest computers, the UNIVAC 1. She also worked on computer translation of Russian, gave lectures to government agencies and private firms to promote the computers’ ability to make their work more efficient, and taught computer coding to people with physical disabilities. In 1977, she developed an algorithm for computing the dates of the Jewish holidays that is still used today. |
