Timeline of Alan Turing's major events
1912 Born in London, England
In 1931, he entered King's College, Cambridge, England, and was subsequently promoted to researcher
In 1936, he published the paper "Computable Numbers", proposed the "Turing machine" model, and entered Princeton University in the United States for further study
In 1939, he was recruited into the British Code School and participated in the cracking of the German "mystery machine" code
In 1946, he entered the National Physical Laboratory in the United Kingdom and participated in the development of the ACE computer
In 1948, he entered the University of Manchester and was responsible for the programming of the Manchester Mark One computer
1950 Published the paper "Computer And Intelligence", proposing the "Turing Test"
1952 Convicted of "aggravated indecency" and chemically castrated
1954 Commits suicide by taking poison in his own apartment in Manchester
From the age of 9, Turing often liked to be alone and think alone. He has different hobbies from his peers, likes to observe plants alone, likes to make small inventions, and seems very unsociable. After entering shelbani college, the situation did not change.
Although Turing has shown talent in mathematics, chemistry and other subjects early on, he is seriously partial to subjects and often ranks first in the penultimate for courses that he is not interested in. In addition, turing characters are written crookedly. He also invented his own set of calculus writing rules that were difficult to read. However, under the influence of his classmate Christopher, Turing was admitted to King's College, Cambridge, to study mathematics and show his mathematical talent.
As an adult, Turing still likes to think alone and does not like to be bound by the social rules commonly known as conventions. When socializing, only socialize with people who have common topics with you. Never really integrated into the community of mathematicians and scientists.
Turing discovered his homosexual tendencies as a teenager.
In February 1952, Turing's home was burglarized and reported to the local police, who quickly caught the thief, a young man named Seck.
However, the police also discovered his homosexual relationship with Murray. Turing was convicted of indecent assault and underwent chemical castration. And eventually led to his suicide two years later.
