Alan Turing

The Imitation Game was developed in 1950 by Alan Turing. The goal of the game is to proof that a machine can think. In the game the interrogator must determine which one of the participants is a human and which one is the machine. He states that if a machine passes the test, there will be no question that the machine is undeniably thinking. He rises the argument of consciousness, the objection of Lady Lovelace’s, his responses and leave as with the question if the test is a good way to tell if a…

Alan Turing was born June 23rd, 1912. He was the son of Julius Mathison and Ethel Sara Turing. He had an older brother, John Turing. John and Alan did not see their parents much because of their work. Turing was very smart, especially in science. He invented many machines that have helped us get to our point in technology. He saved millions of lives, changing the future forever. Alan Turing has done some major accomplishments in his life. He was not only a mathematician but also a cryptographer…

The field of Computer Science owes a lot to the research and innovation of Alan Turing, a man who is popularly referred to as the “father of modern computer science”. Turing is perhaps most famously known for breaking the Enigma machine code, a cipher that was used by Nazi Germany used during World War II for military communication; professor Jack Copeland (2012) suggested that without the information gained from being able to decipher German intelligence, the war may have “continued for another…

Millions of valiant soldiers, sailors, and airmen contributed to the Allied victory over Nazi Germany in World War II, but one of the war’s biggest heroes was a little-known British scientist who never stepped foot on a battlefield. Alan Turing was a brilliant mathematician, logician, and cryptologist who played a pivotal role in cracking the Enigma code — the system used by the Nazis to encrypt secret messages — which many experts believed was impossible to break. The intelligence gleaned from…

to the scientific and historical aspect to their movie The Imitation Game, which Tyldum responds that “scientific discoveries (history) happens over time in life, but we have to make moments, and movie making (Hollywood) is all about moments” (“Alan Turing and The Imitation Game”). According to Tyldum, one goal is to make the movie “understandable and engaging to the viewers,” something that Hollywood films tend to do by twisting the traditional history lesson in hopes of capturing the purpose…

mathematician Alan Turing once said this. Faced with many obstacles and critics in his life, he proved this to be true. Many people never thought he would accomplish his ideas, and even as a child he was discouraged from practicing and learning science. Later in life, he made machines and proved theories no one believed were possible. Alan Turing was born on June 23, 1912 in London, England (Hodges 8). Although he did not come from a particularly rich family, his father worked hard for Turing…

World War Two by 2– 4 years! In addition, without these codes having been figured out, the outcome of the war could have been different. Alan Turing was one of Bletchley Park’s engineers, and is commonly thought of as the Father of Computing {ICT}, and was a pioneer in the subject. {One of the first people to explore this aspect}. From early on in his life, Turing spent his time acquiring knowledge on sciences and…

has been around for around 100 years and has had the attention of many computer scientists who want to delve deeper into the mysterious reality of intelligent computers. Alan Turing is one computer scientist that is credited for taking huge strides in the development…

Imagine it’s the start of WW2 and you were given a task of decoding an ever changing, impossible to crack, nazi code called the enigma. This very task was what was assigned to many of Britain's greatest minds among them was a man named Alan Turing. In short Alan was smart but socially awkward and found himself working alone even though he is apart of the team. Throughout his work during the WWII era he conducted extensive research using major mathematical concepts in order to further his work on…

Alan Turing’s Invention Of Bombe: Caused The Alteration Of The Modern Era and World War II 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…
