"A new math and programmeringsläger without boys to spark more girls' interest in programming and problem-solving."

" We have had camps with 70 participants, only three have been girls. This will be a more welcoming environment, " says event organizer Linn Rydberg."

"this weekend was held for the first time a programming and matteläger for girls. The camp was held in Lund, sweden, and behind is the non-profit association Young Vetenskapssport. The advantage of targeting both math and programming is that the substances are so strongly interconnected."

"– If you are going to be good at programming, you need math, and you are good at math, you will most likely find that programming is fun, " says Linn Rydberg."

"once upon A time, she was self campers and felt often that it was sad that there were so few girls. This weekend's pojkfria camp is the first camp she is responsible for, and it went better than expected. A total of 38 girls from different parts of the country. The plan is to organize a new camp already in the autumn."

" It feels great that so many came. I was just talking with a few students when one of the girls said that she didn't even knew that there were girls who like to program prior to this camp. I think this really symbolizes why it is important."

"One of the participants was 18-year-old Agnes Ekman, who is taken down from Stockholm. Everyday she goes in school, Södra Latin in Stockholm and is interested in both math and programming."

" I wanted to go to learn more and to get the see of Lund, which is a really nice student city. The camp has been great, I've learned a lot and met many new people, " she says."

"During the two days held lectures on mathematics and programming where theory and exercises interspersed."

"– They go through a lot and it is a faster tempo than what one is accustomed to. But even if you do not understand everything to get a better grip on the programming, " says Agnes Ekman."

"the Camp ended on Sunday with a large programming contest where it went on to solve various problems and tasks the best or for the shortest time, and the winners were awarded with candy."

"1842 – British matematikgeniet Ada Lovelace creating the first algorithm. She has often been mentioned as history's first computer programmer."

"1942 – Hedy Lamarr was not only an austrian-american actor, but also an inventor, and to lay the foundation for today's wireless communication, such as GPS, Wifi and Bluetooth."

"1945 – the Mathematicians Kay McNulty, Betty Jennings, Betty Snyder, Marlyn Wescoff, Fran Bilas and Ruth Lichterman will be some of the world's first programmer for the world's first electronic computer – the ENIAC."

"in 1948 – The English mathematician and datapionjären Elsa-Karin Boestad-Nilsson begin to program the Swedish mainframe computers of the Defence research centre of finland (FOA) where she programmed the first Swedish calculator, Bark (binary arithmetic reläkalkylator)."

"1952 – The american mathematician Grace Hopper designs a program that could translate text into computer language, resulting in the world's first compiler, the Flow-matic."

"of 1969 – the Mathematician and the programmer Margaret Hamilton invents the hand-written code as saw that the man could reach the moon."

"1975 – Radia Perlman creates the protocol STP that is still used to control traffic on the network. The discovery have been her that called. "

"1991 – Swedish programmer and internetpionjären Ann-Marie Nilsson is regarded as a leaders in the IT in Sweden, after having procured all of the governmental tele - and data communications in the 90's."
