Turing Machine
The seminar paper was then able to explain to the public how a machine could be able to figure out any problem through the process of encoding. -
Published a Seminal Paper
In 1936, Turing presented to the public his seminal paper "On Computable Numbers, with an Application to the Entscheidungsproblem", which discussed theories on current computer science. -
Receives PhD Princeton University
In 1938, Turing finished up his final years of school to further his passion in science and mathematics as he received his PhD from Princeton University. -
The Bombe
During World War II Turing helped develop the bombe which was a machine that helped break codes that the Germans would make. -
Turing's Engagement
In 1941 Turing proposed to Joan Clarke who was also his colleague and a fellow mathematician. Their engagement did not last long as he proclaimed he was a homosexual. -

Order of the British Empire
Turing was awarded the Order of the British empire by the queen of England for making such a huge impact on World War II for the British Empire. -
Turing Test
The Turing Test is a test that is able to conclude how much a machine can demonstrate behaviors like a human. The machine will only pass the Turing Test if the evaluator is convinced that it displays human behaviors. -
Fellow of the Royal Society
Turing's is elected to be the Fellow of the Royal Society where he gives a speech on the intelligence of computers. -
