In this video, we celebrate the incredible legacy of Grace Hopper, affectionately known as the Queen of Computer Code. A true pioneer in the world of technology, Hopper’s contributions laid the foundation for modern computing as we know it today. From her development of the first programming language compiler, Flow-Matic, to her pivotal role in creating COBOL, a programming language still used in business and government systems, Hopper’s influence is everywhere.

We’ll also dive into one of the most famous moments in tech history—Grace Hopper discovering the first actual computer bug (yes, a real bug!), a moment that changed how we talk about debugging and fixing software issues. Beyond her technical achievements, we’ll explore her remarkable career as Lt. Grace Hopper in the U.S. Navy, where she broke through barriers and became an inspiration for generations of women in tech.

Whether you’re passionate about coding, curious about the history of computing, or simply inspired by powerful women who’ve changed the world, this video will take you through the life of Hopper and her lasting impact on the tech landscape.
