Hopper is one of the most well-known female computer scientists, as well as a Navy Admiral. She was one of the first programmers of the Harvard Mark I computer, developed the first compiler for a computer programming language, popularized the idea of machine-independent programming languages, and developed COBOL. The U.S. Navy destroyer USS Hopper is named for her, as is the Cray XE6 Hopper supercomputer.
Hopper was also the originator of the term "bug" for a problem in a computer. Bug was much more literal back then, though.
