Crash Course Computer Science #15: Alan Turing

Curated by ACT

This video [13:04] focuses on Alan Turing, the father of computer science, the person who formulated many of the theoretical concepts that underlie modern computation. From his theoretical Turing Machine and work on the Bombe to break Nazi Enigma codes during World War II, to his contributions in the field of Artificial Intelligence (before it was even called that), Alan Turing helped inspire the first generation of computer scientists - despite a life tragically cut short.
