Panini
The correct answer is Panini.
Panini's method of organizing these rules, using meta-rules, transformations, and recursion, is remarkably sophisticated and has been compared to modern formal systems and computer programming languages. This work had a profound influence on the development of linguistic thought in India and has also been studied by Western linguists. The study of Panini's grammar is essential for understanding classical Sanskrit literature and philosophy. His work standardized the Sanskrit language, ensuring its structure and usage remained consistent over centuries.
