What are the differences between the two bombs dubbed Fat Man and Little Boy?

You do this by compressing the material violently with conventional explosives. The Little Boy used an internal cannon to shoot a projectile into a mass of uranium to compress it. The Fat Man used a sphere of plutonium surrounded by a 'shape charge' that would explode and compress it.
