Alan Turing
Introduction
a. When I say apple say the first person’s name that comes to mind, okay how about Microsoft? Do you recognize this quote” We can only see a short distance ahead, but we can see plenty there that needs to be done.
b. Today I am introducing an amazing man, a genius some might say. He is the intellectual father of the modern computer and he had a theory, but I am getting ahead of myself. From reading The New Yorker to Time Magazine I have learned much about Alan Turing. I would like share with you how Alan Turing changed the computer age by focusing on three aspects of his life: the first his early life, second his adult life and third his work and accomplishments.

a. Alan Mathieson Turing Early Life
i. Alan Mathieson Turing was born on June 23 1912, the second and last child of Julius Mathieson and Ethel Sara Turing. He was born in a nursing home in Paddington, London according to turing.org.uk which was I retrieved on 2/15/15 ii. His father worked in the Indian Civil service and instead of taking their child back to the East, they sent him to live with a retired Army couple in a seaside English town. iii. Alan was a good-looking boy, dreamy, rather clumsy, and not very popular with his classmates. iv. It wasn’t until his early teens when he met another boy who shared his passion for science,. They became inseparable friends exploring Einstein’s relativity theory together. Unfortunately a year later his friend died of tuberculosis.
b. Adult Life
i. In 1936, he went to Princeton University, returning to England in 1938. Cambridge University, fascinated by the math of quantum physics. ii. He began to work secretly part-time for the British Government Code and Cypher School. On the outbreak of the Second World War he took up full-time work at its headquarters, Bletchley Park.
