what is the software programming language that was made by a famous woman mathematician?

Ada didn't make the language, it was named after her because she wrote stuff that can be interpreted as the first programming work - for a calculating engine that was never finished.
COBOL was created under the direction of Grace Hopper in the early 60's

be conscious: Ada exchange into _not_ between the 1st programming languages ever. they did not even initiate designing it till at last 1977. Fortran, COBOL, and Algol pass lower back to the 50s, person-friendly the 60s, C and Pascal the early 70s.
