In 1843, Ada Lovelace published the first nontrivial program. How did it work?
Oh, look. More data art I made.
A new NASA competition is calling on computer programmers to help streamline a piece of software the agency uses for aviation research.
If you're a computer programmer with some time on your hands, NASA needs you!
The agency said it wants to streamline a piece of software used for aviation research and run on one of the world's most powerful supercomputers. To do so, NASA has teamed up with HeroX and Topcoder to launch the High Performance Fast Computing Challenge (HPFCC), according to a statement.
The challenge, should you choose to accept it entails getting NASA's FUN3D design software to run faster — 10 to 10,000 times faster, in fact. [Images: NASA's Vision of Future Air Travel]
This may sound like a heady task, but NASA officials said the speed jump could be accomplished by identifying a coding bottleneck or simply by shaving milliseconds off of one of the software's many subroutines by making it more efficient.
"This is the ultimate 'geek' dream assignment," said Doug Rohn, director of NASA's Transformative Aeronautics Concepts Program (TACP), in the statement. "Helping NASA speed up its software to help advance our aviation research is a win-win for all."

One of the main areas of concern for students to learn programming is to know where to get started, a lot of times students start off with some sort of courses, or YouTube videos that would give them a vague answer, but the fact is that in order to learn to program there are certain building blocks that you have to learn by Arthur Ocain
Programming has single evenhandedly changed the entire flow of how humans used to lead their life, be it the way we travel, communicating wi...
