Alan Turing: Father of the computer
You may never have heard of him, but it is largely thanks to his genius that you are reading this on your computer.
Alan Turing, a pioneering 20th century mathematician, is widely considered to be the father of modern computer science.
It was his idea of creating a machine to turn thought processes into numbers which was one of the key turning points in the history of electronic boxes and screens.
Now an appeal has been launched to raise £50,000 for a bronze statue of him - but so far, computer companies have failed to give a single penny.
Turing was born in London in 1912 into an upper-middle class family and displayed a fascination for science throughout childhood.

Perhaps the computer had a mother not a father; do some research on Ada Lovelace
