| developed A0 and Flow-Matic early pioneer in HW-abstraction, mathematician, rear Admiral in the US Navy research, chiefest inventor of the compiler, imho |
Grace M. Hopper entered the US Navy in 1943 to work for the Ordonance Computation Project at Harvard. There she worked with Howard Aiken on Harvard Mark I and was only the 3rd person to program it.
Afterwards she worked on the Harvard Mark II after the war. She then joined the Eckert-Mauchly Computer Corporation as a Senior Mathematician in 1949, discovered the 1st computer "bug" finished Flow-Matic, the first English-language data-processing compiler in 1952:
"Nobody believed that," she said. "I had a running compiler and nobody would touch it. They told me computers could only do arithmetic."
Rear Admiral Grace Hopper retired from the Navy at age 80, the first woman to receive America's highest technology award as an individual.
