Nowadays there are more and more programmers, so there are more and more excellent programmers. But which of them is the top of the top?

. Developers in the industry are still enthusiastic about this topic. ITworld uses voting and analyzes data in other foreign communities (such as Quora, Reddit ) to determine whether the ranking and analysis are consistent. As a result, some names did appear repeatedly in everyone's discussions.
Let's take a look at the 15 most recognized outstanding programmers who are still alive:
(The editor first adds that the following sorting is not based on personal achievements. If you are you The big steak you like is behind, don’t worry, don’t get excited~≧▽≦~)
1. Margaret Hamilton
Main achievement: the hero behind the Apollo project flight control 1h1 p0span_h144 Reason for being on the list: As the director of the software engineering department of the Charlse Stark Draper laboratory,She led her team to design and develop flight control software for NASA's Apollo program and Skylab mission. Based on her achievements in the Apollo project, she subsequently developed a common system language and DBTF development paradigm. She pioneered the concept of "asynchronous software, priority scheduling, and high-confidence software design". These have become the foundation of "software engineering" in the future. She was the recipient of the Augusta Ada Lovelace Award in 1986 and won the NASA Outstanding Space Performance Award in 2003. User comments
- ford_beeblebrox: Hamilton invented software testing, she can be regarded as the founder of American computer engineering.
- Dan Allen: I think that before her accomplishment (I am afraid I would take the liberty, because Knuth is also included in this range), computer programming (and related things) is still just a branch of mathematics . Then a set of flight control software for aerospace vehicles clearly took programming to a different paradigm field.
- David Hamilton: …she coined the term "software engineering", and then used an example to show everyone how to do it
- Drukered: She is too great for 21 _span _span65
(next to it is the code of the Apollo Guidance System of "Books and Body")
2. Donald Knuth
img2 h144h1
_ The main achievement of the author of "Programming Computer Art":
's reason for being on the list: He wrote a decisive book on computer programming theory,Invented the TeX digital typesetting system. He was the recipient of the first ACM Grace Murray Hopper Award in 1971. List of this article). He is also the winner of the ACM Turing Award (1974), the highest award in computer science (he was only 36 years old at the time), the winner of the National Medal of Science in 1979 and the winner of the IEEE von Neumann Medal (1995). He was appointed as a member of the Hall of Fame at the Computer History Museum in 1998.
User comments:
- Anonymous: Writing the book "The Art of Computer Programming" is probably the most complicated work on computer programming in history.
- Jaap Weel: Among the computer software I have used, there is only one that has almost no bugs, and that is TeX written by Don Knuth. This is so impressive.
- Bo Xiaole added: There are almost no bugs in TeX, which is true. Gartner once again declared with action that my thing (TeX) can no longer be improved a lot, at most I can only make minor repairs to make it closer to perfection. He also set up a special bonus: whoever finds a bug in Tex will pay him $2.56, the second error is $5.12, and the third is $10.24. Please read this article: "Which is the most complicated/important program that programmers do single-handedly?" ". But someone really got his check.
- Mitch Ree-Jones: Let me evaluate him,That's incredibly good.
3. Ken Thompson
The main achievements: Unix _span1 _span1 _span1 Dennis Ritch1 p0span 144hie creator of span He is the inventor of the B language, the UTF-8 character encoding specification and the ed text editor. He is also one of the co-developers of the Go programming language. He and Dennis Ritchie won the ACM Turing Award in 1983, the IEEE Computer Pioneer Award in 1994, and the National Medal of Technology in 1998. In 1997, he officially became a member of the American Computer History Museum Hall of Fame.
User comments:

Reason for listing: He founded the GNU project,And developed many core tools for it, such as Emacs , GCC, GDB, etc., as well as GNU Make. He also founded the Free Software Foundation. He is the winner of the ACM Grace Murray Hopper Award in 1990 and the winner of the EFF Pioneer Award in 1998.
Netizens’ comments:
- Srinivasan Krishnan: ...in the Lisp Machine dispute between Symbolic and LMI, he showed a hundred percent programming prowess Supplement: This is a very legendary story. At that time, Richard Stallman worked in the artificial intelligence laboratory of Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). One of the important achievements of the laboratory was Lisp Machine. Later, two groups of scientists in the laboratory went to sea separately He started his own business and founded Lisp Machine Inc., which is LMI, and Symbolic. The main businesses of these two companies are based on Lisp Machine, and they also signed an agreement with MIT , saying that MIT authorized them to use Lisp Machine, and the improvements made by the two Lisp Machines are also authorized by MIT, which is mutually beneficial. However, it was unexpected that Symbolic company wanted to start anew, so imitating the functions of Lisp Machine, it re-developed a copy of its own, and the software product to be developed in the future is Based on this imitation system instead of MIT’s Lisp Machine, there is no need to exchange results with MIT and LMI. This move made Richard Stallman very angry, and he decided to clean up Symbolic, a company that was dazzled by money, so He just stared at the new product launch of Symbolic,As soon as Symbolic releases a new product, he will immediately start to make a function on Lisp Machine and send it to MIT and LMI. In general, the new software launched by Sybmolic, Richard Stallman himself can make a function exactly the same in a few days. This way and efficiency of his work once annoyed the Symbolic company. )
- Dan Dunay: "His understanding of programming and the brilliance of his ideas are so powerful that he has formed a complete computer programming subculture system."
- en Marko Great. Although I don't agree with him 100%, I must be one of the most important programmers in history, both in front of and behind him.
- John Burnette: If you think about it, if the GNU project does not exist when Linux is written, what will happen? So Stallman is the boss, yeah~
