Alan Turing was a brilliant mathematician and computer scientist. He was born in 1912, and he grew up in London, where he lived for most of his life. Today, he is famous for developing an important computer program that helped the British government in World War II. The aim of the technology was to understand secret codes sent by a machine called ENIGMA. By breaking the codes, Turing helped end the war. This work saved millions of lives. It also had a huge impact on the development of future computers. The film The Imitation Game discusses Turing's life and work, and it explains the many reasons we should celebrate this amazing inventor.
