A naval officer and early computer pioneer whose work led to the development of Cobol (one of the first programming languages) and (probably not coincidentally, if you've worked with any of those early programming languages) popularized the term "debugging".
He taught himself the early programming languages of the 1980s: BASIC, C, Assembler.
The early programming languages were difficult to learn, but subsequent versions became easier and now we've progressed into packaged, user-friendly business applications and solutions.
His background in mathematical algorithms led Dr. Schwartz to develop an early programming language called SETL, based on the mathematical theory of sets.
The early programming language Ada was named for her, and the second Tuesday in October has become Ada Lovelace Day, on which the contributions of women to science, technology, engineering, and mathematics are honoured.
And the aforementioned COBOL Commonn Business-Oriented Language), one of the earliest standardized programming languages, is largely based on work done in the nineteen-fifties by Grace Hopper, a computer scientist and U.S. Navy rear admiral.
In a series of films and live events they draw historical resonance from two early computer programming languages that were developed for making music but have since been made redundant by more sophisticated software.
However, they can only be applied to numerical models written in earlier generations of programming languages.
You won't be able to build much in it, but it was one of the early object-oriented programming languages.
Rutishauser was later involved in creating one of the most carefully defined programming languages of this early era, ALGOL.
