A tribute to one of Great Britain and the world's finest computer scientists Alan Turing, who despite breaking Nazi encryption codes during World War II and designing the first computer systems used in production, was persecuted for his sexual persuasion. Later this year will finally be pardoned and excused for his terrible treatment during the 1950s.
