She also developed the first commercial ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=high-level language">high-level language, which eventually evolved into ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=COBOL">COBOL. She worked on the ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=Mark I">Mark I computer with Howard Aiken and with ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=BINAC">BINAC in 1949. She is credited with having coined the term "debug", and the adage "it is always easier to ask forgiveness than it is to get permission" (with various wordings), which has been the guiding principle in ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=syschef">syschef decisions ever since. See also the entries ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=debug">debug and ef="module.php?name=Lexikon&file=search&eid=1&query=bug">bug.
