Pinpointing the "first" programming language is tricky due to different definitions. Ada Lovelace's 1843 algorithm for Charles Babbage's Analytical Engine is commonly credited, although it wasn't executed on a true equipment. The main equipment-executed languages emerged inside the forties, with Shorter Code (1949) and Plankalkül (1943-1945) getting notable early illustrations. https://blog.hellomybd.com/the-first-programming-language/
