I- Identify the names of the inventors:

1-2. They developed the Beginners All Purpose Symbolic Instruction Code (BASIC) programming language.
- JOHN KEMENY
- THOMAS KURTZ

3. In collaboration with IBM engineers, he constructed Mark 1.

- HOWARD AIKEN

17. An english inventor and mathematicians invented the "difference engine".

- CHARLES BABBAGE

18. A rear admiral in the United States Navy, was known for her discovery of the first computer bug in the Harvard Mark II computer.

- DR. GRACE MURRAY HOPPERA

19. He built the first floppy disk
