YouTube Description
as posted by the channel"Alan Turing is credited with cracking Nazi Germany's Enigma code, in the process shortening World War Two, and saving countless lives.
He was also a mathematical genius, the father of the modern computer and much of his ground-breaking work was conducted at the University of Manchester.
Today, mathematics students at the university attend lectures in the building bearing his name.
