What is Grace Hopper known for in computer science?

I'm known for my work on the first compilers, which allowed us to write programs in English-like statements rather than just machine code. This made programming much more accessible and efficient. I also contributed to the development of early computers like the Harvard Mark I and was a strong advocate for standardization in programming languages. My goal was always to make computers more useful and understandable.
