Grace Hopper, a rear admiral in the U.S. Navy, was instrumental in the development of COBOL, one of the first programming languages. She also conceptualized the idea of machine-independent programming languages, which paved the way for the development of high-level programming languages. Hopper's contributions are fundamental to how we write and understand code today.
