Introduction to the Industrial Revolution

2. A person skilled in mathematics, like Charles Babbage and Ada Lovelace, who worked on early computer concepts.
3. The process of interlacing warp and weft threads to create fabric
4. The process of writing instructions for a machine, proposed by Ada Lovelace for Babbage’s Analytical Engine.
8. A device used to weave threads into fabric, essential in producing cloth during the Industrial Revolution.
10. The process of machines performing tasks that previously required human labor.
13. An early computer design by Charles Babbage that used punch cards to carry out mathematical calculations.
14. A mathematician who expanded on Charles Babbage's ideas, proposing that machines could process data beyond numbers, laying the foundation for computer programming.
16. A ship powered by steam engines, revolutionizing travel and transportation in the 19th century.

1. The period starting around 1750 when machines and factories transformed the way goods were produced and energy was used.
5. A system of instructions using two states, such as "punched hole" or "no hole," to direct a machine's actions.
6. A steam-powered engine used to pull trains, transforming transportation during the Industrial Revolution.
7. A Scottish instrument maker who, in 1776, designed a steam engine that burned coal to produce steam, revolutionizing the efficiency of earlier designs and powering the Industrial Revolution.
9. A British mathematician who designed the Analytical Engine, a forerunner of modern computers.
11. A revolutionary weaving machine that used punch cards to control patterns and automate the process.
12. Energy sources such as coal, oil, and natural gas, formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals and used to release stored energy.
15. A black, carbon-rich rock formed from ancient plants compressed under pressure, used as a major fuel source during the Industrial Revolution.
