Three of the six women computers of ENIAC

Yes, during those days programmers were called computers.

Electronic Numerical Integrator And Computer(ENIAC) was Turing complete and was the first general purpose computer. It was funded by the US Army during World War II.

The six women who did most of the programming of ENIAC were inducted in 1997 into the Women in Technology International Hall of Fame.

Three of them are Kay McNulty, Betty Jennings and Betty Snyder. Betty Jennings was the last among them and passed away on March 23, 2011. It is worthwhile finding the the remaining three women.
