  • Alan Mathison Turing, OBE, FRS (pronounced /ˈtjʊərɪŋ/ TYOOR-ing; 23 June 1912 – 7 June 1954), was an English mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst, and computer scientist. He was influential in the development of computer science and providing a formalization of the concept of the algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, playing a significant role in the creation of the modern computer.

  • Alan Mathison Turing was a British mathematician and theorist, and hailed as the father of computer science. He also was the man responsible for decrypting the Enigma device during World War II, ensuring a victory for the Allied Forces against Nazi Germany. He was also responsible for the Turing Test, which involved determining whether a computer or AI had "sentience" or not if they possessed a keen intellect, which was inspired by a party trick involving deducing whether written notes were made by a woman or a man posing as a woman.
  • Turing was an employee of Abstergo Industries and a member of the Templar Order. He was also a confidant of another Templar, John Maynard Keynes. During World War II, Turing worked for British intelligence, and was instrumental in cracking the code for the German Enigma machine. In 1952, the Templars had Turing arrested for gross indecency in an effort to silence him. When this failed, the Templars killed Turing on 7 June 1954, and made it appear as if Turing had killed himself with a cyanide-laced apple, taking care to make the death seem "poetic", as the engineer "always was theatrical".
  • Alan Turing (1912–1954) was the som of an English civil servant that worked in India. He attended boarding school at Sherbourne followed by a stint at Cambridge University. While there he studied mathematics under Newman, a professor whose interest lay in the field of mathematical logic. He became acquainted with two important papers published by the Austrian logician Kurt Gödel that were published around 1930 in the same field, which was an active one at the time. The subject of the papers was the Hilbert, or "decision" problem, asks if there is a given finite procedure to determine if a given Diophantine equation is solvable. After Cambridge, Turing went to Princeton University as it was the principal location where research into mathematical logic was occurring. In 1936 Turing presented
  • Alan Mathison Turing was a pioneering English computer scientist, mathematician, logician, cryptanalyst and theoretical biologist. He was highly influential in the development of theoretical computer science, providing a formalisation of the concepts of algorithm and computation with the Turing machine, which can be considered a model of a general purpose computer. Turing is widely considered to be the father of theoretical computer science and artificial intelligence.
