Grace Hopper
Grace Hopper, born December 9th, 1906, graduated from multiple universities with degrees specializing in mathematics. Hopper went on to develop Common Business Oriented Language (COBOl). This was one of the first standardized computer languages, used for finance and business code. She also developed the first compiler code, A-0, which translated mathematical code into machine-reaable code. Hopper was essential in the creation of modern programming languages.
