Alan Turing : Enigma Machine Code Breaker
A man born in London on June 23, 1912, was the best student in mathematics in 1935 at Cambridge University of Kings College. He managed to make a famous work in mathematical logic called "Computable Numbers" (Turing 1936-7), which can be applied to the Entscheidungsproblem. He can also make a Turing machine. For the rest of his life, Turing always struggled with mathematics, and today people are specifically avoiding this particular science.
His great contribution came when World War II became fierce. Turing was recruited by British troops with ancient ruins sent by Nazi Germany through a device called Enigma. This tool contains the command code of attack in the Nazi base, depending on the traffic of the German army. The daily code is a different machine sent by an Enigma machine. Turing's task to get it done.
But instead of counting to decode Enigma like in a movie, Turing actually creates a code-splitter that can operate automatically. His efforts succeeded. Colossus is a machine called colossus.
Many historians agree that by breaking the Enigma code machine and shortening the Second World War over the next two or three years, millions of lives will be saved. Quoting the historian Harbin Hinsley, Philip pointed out that the EU invasion occurred in 1946 or 1947, not June 6, 1944, if Enigma was not resolved. If Enigma is not resolved, the United States will probably destroy an atomic bomb in Germany. German efforts to develop missiles capable of being filled with chemical or biological weapons to attack Britain were also successful.
Thanks to Alan Turing for breaking the Enigma code, all those nightmares did not happen. Perhaps Turing was greeted as a hero, a statue that stood in central London. However, sexual preferences of sexual orientation (homosexuals) in the postwar period are questionable.
In Britain, being homosexual in the past is a crime. Choosing to go to jail or taking medicine is another kind of enthusiastic enthusiast. Alan Turing was forced to use drugs. However, due to deep depression, at 42 young age, Turing wiped her apple with cyanide poison. He ended his life on June 9, 1954.
About 60 years after his death, British mathematician Alan Turing was regarded as a central figure in computer development, and Queen Elizabeth II officially demanded her belief in homosexuality in 1952. In a statement, Prime Minister David Cameron said, "Behavior has saved many lives and left a legacy nationwide through scientific achievements, often calling them "the father of modern computing. "
Nice post! Turing had problems because of his sexual orientation. The Polish mathematicians who also contributed to breaking the Enigma Code were forgotten because....they were Poles.
