    The code breaker who saved millions Intro: On September 3rd of 1939, four countries declared war on Germany, France, Australia, New Zealand, and Britain. That was the beginning of WWII for Britain. One important role they played in the war was the decryption of the Enigma code. The enigma code was first discovered by the Polish who shared the information with the British and the French when they were in fear of attack. When the Polish shared their information with the British about the Enigma,…

    way to our mathematics course under the study of encryption and coding. What Alan Turing did as a mathematician during World War II involved the use of codes and encryption to break the unbreakable enigma machine and subsequently win the war. His work had humble beginnings and staggering remains, but his involvement in breaking the enigma machine has indeed changed the course of history for the better. Turing was very much a self-involved student growing up.…

    This machine developed to the enigma A and B in the early 1920’s but the sheer weight of them (50 kg) meant that they were too heavy for use by the military until the enigma D came out in 1927. The use of a reflector as the fourth motor meant that the enigma machine became much lighter and smaller than it had previously been beforehand. However, the code of the enigma D was broken in 1935 which meant that a front plug board had…

    Stationed at Bletchley Park in Hut 8, he is accompanied by his fellow cryptologists and colleague Joan Clarke, who is played by Keira Knightley. 'Enigma ' was a highly complex device used by the Nazi Germans to send encrypted code messages throughout the world prior and during World War II. The device was so instrumental to Hitler 's early dominance because nobody except the Germans knew how to read and decipher the messages during the early folds of the…

    The Machine Stops” is a story that tells about a mother and son, Vashti and Kuno, living in a dystopian society where machines controlled everything and were made to care for an individual in isolation. Food and water is dispensed from the machine and all communication including personal, professional, and educational is done through a monitor. In this society, no one is allowed to leave his or her room without a temporary permit. If they did something that was deemed illegal, has punishment…

    just after World War I. Though Germany believed their machine was "unbreakable", the efforts to find a flaw in their system were ultimately successful. With the state-of-the-art technology and ingenuity of the inventors, the enigma had the potential to give Germany extreme advantages during World War II, but simple mistakes cost the country their machine's success as well as their success in the war. The enigma was a rotor-based cipher machine that allowed the German military to send encrypted…

    Bletchley Park is located in Buckinghamshire, and during World War Two, was Britain’s main code breaking centre. Several German codes from the Enigma and Lorenz machines were decoded here. Many historians, after a lot of research, have come to the conclusion that the intelligence produced by the workers at Bletchley Park shortened 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…
