Turing's History
Alan Mathison Turing was a British mathematician, philosopher, logician, computer scientist, cryptoanalyst and mathematical biologist. He was awarded several honorable positions by the British government i.e. He is the fellow of royal society as well as he had also recieved several awards from British empire. He is now considered to be the father of theoretical computer science.
In order to make some general purpose computational device we require some kind of algorithms to carry out by the computer and then computation can be done(On the other side Communication was the big problem) but what Turing did was that he devised some concepts to combine both algorithms & computation with Turing machine(in honor of his name but he called a-machine).
