What did Alan Turing do during the war?
By breaking the Enigma Code.
Where did Alan Turing invent his computer?
Alan Turing theorised about a computer but it was actually invented and built by Tommy Flowers, a post office engineer ! He spent 1000 pounds of his own money to ensure it was built and it cracked the German High Command code, The Lorenz Cipher, shortening WWII by a year.
Who invented the world war 2 code breaking machine enigma?
The Enigma was a German code generating machine.
Was Alan Turing a famous scientist?
Yes, Alan Turing was a famous scientist. He was a key member of the British Intelligence team that broke the "Enigma" code that the Nazis used in World War II. He also created the "Turing Test" to determine the "intelligence" of a computer. He is considered to be one of the creators of the concept of "Artificial Intelligence".
Why was Alan Turing famous?
He was instrumental in the breaking of the German Enigma code in WW2 (Codename Ultra) at Station X, Bletchley Park. A computer named Colossus was built which deciphered messages: The error in the code was that no letter pressed on the keyboard would replicate itself. The British were at great pains not to let the Germans know of its ability to detect & decode messages. The Enigma machine had 3 or 4 rotors and was highly complex. Turing was one among many who made this detection possible.

Who developed a computer to break codes during world war 2?
Alan Turing. He broke the German enigma code machine around 1941.

When did Alan turing invented enigma machine?
Alan Turing didn't invent Enigma you complete inbacile. He cracked the code that the Germans were sending with the Enigma machine once. And it wasn't just his it was a whole team of people.
What was Alan turings profession?
Alan Turing was trained as a mathematician. During World War II, he worked for British Intelligence at Bletchley Park, where he specialized in cryptography (breaking secret codes). Using his expertise in mathematical logic, he developed an algorithm (a mathematical template) that was used to program a calculating machine to analyze German codes. The programming was successful and enabled the British to crack the German "Enigma" code; for several months the Allies had full access to German messages. Turing's work at Bletchley Park led directly to the development of the computer and modern research in artificial intelligence. Although Turing never claimed to be a philosopher, his work on the nature of intelligence and machine "thinking" is considered a substantial contribution to the philosophical discussion on these issues.

What british mathematician broke the German codes in ww II?
He didn't do it by himself, but Alan Turing played a key role in breaking the German codes during WWII. Turing is recognized by many (although not all) as the Father of Artificial Intelligence. Among those who played a key role in breaking the Enigma code and the Lorenz code were a group of Polish mathematicians who had been spirited out of France? by the British so that the Germans would not capture them.

Which code did enigma crack?
The German Military code during World War II. The Germans thought that it couldn't be broken.
During World War 2 the british crack a German top secret code who cracked it and what it was called?
