at King’s College, Cambridge and was made a Fellow at only 22. In 1936 Turing, aged 24, published On Computable Numbers and their Application to the Entscheidungsproblem, not a snappy title, but one of the most influential mathematical works of the 20" century. The paper described the new the science of computing and
