Correction 16 May 2018: In an earlier version of this article, the photo of female programmers was captioned incorrectly. The women were at the US Army Ballistics Research Laboratory in 1962, not working on ENIAC at the University of Pennsylvania in the 1940s (see also K. Shirriff Nature 557, 309; 2018). Also, the figure of 57% originally cited for women in the US workforce was actually for women in the US professional workforce.
