Abstract
Every December, computer scientists, teachers, and enthusiasts mark the birthday of Rear Admiral Grace Hopper (1906-1992), computing pioneer.* Hopper is credited with inventing one of the first compiler related tools. In fact, her work with machine-independent programming languages paved the way for COBOL, a high-level programming language still in use today.
