While she is now considered a pioneer in computer science, her contributions were not widely recognized during her time.
It's worth noting that:
* The concept of "awards" as we know them today was less common in the 19th century. Scientific and mathematical achievements were often acknowledged through publications, memberships in societies, and recognition from peers.
* Lovelace's work was often overshadowed by that of her collaborator, Charles Babbage. Her notes on the Analytical Engine were published as an appendix to Babbage's work, and she was not widely recognized for her own independent contributions.
However, her legacy has been honored with numerous awards and recognitions in modern times:
* The Ada Lovelace Day is an international celebration of women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, held annually on the second Tuesday of October.
* The Ada Lovelace Medal is an award given by the British Computer Society to recognize outstanding contributions to the field of computing.
* The Ada Lovelace Award is an annual award given by the Association for Computing Machinery to recognize women for their contributions to the field.
So, while she didn't receive awards during her lifetime, Ada Lovelace is now celebrated and recognized as a pioneer in the field of computer science through various awards and events.
