Introduction
In the mid-twentieth century war broke out once more, for it lead to misfortunes and bloodshed, until a certain man stepped into the battle to alter the outcome of war. The man’s name was Alan Turing, and his intellectual mind of computer technology gave a gift for the Allied Powers to counterattack Nazi Germany. With the help of the codebreaking machine Bombe it has done a big help on hacking into German communications of World War II. Alan Turing help during the war may have not been in actual combat, but instead with his help from digital communications gave information to his allies of what Nazi Germany was planning to do to the Allies …show more content…
The exploration of the Bombe machine began when both men were improving the machine was said to crack the codes of the earlier version of the Enigma machine potential (Claire Bertrand, and Eleanor Van Heyningen). The Bombe machine wasn’t just one single electromechanical machine that operated on the help of cryptanalysts, but instead there were multiple machines of the same type eventually reaching 200 Bombes in the Bletchley vicinity (Andrew Hodges). The Polish machine Bombe could Bombe was a vital part for cryptanalysts of Bletchley Park, because cryptanalysts could help monitor german communications from Nazi Germany (Andrew Hodges). The Bombe machine would function by first starting off with a so-called crib, is present at a certain position in the message (Reuvers, Paul, and Marc Simons). In the article from Reuvers, Paul, and Marc Simons it states that “The Bombe was further enhanced with the so-called diagonal board, an invention of fellow codebreaker Gordon Welchman, that greatly reduced the number of steps needed for the codebreaking effort”. This shows that the Bombe machine had been improved over the course of time to require less time to break into the communications of Nazi
