What was invented by Alan Turing in the 1930s?

Correct Answer: The Turing machine

Alan Turing (1912–1954) invented the Turing machine in the 1930s — a theoretical mathematical device that became the foundation of modern computer science.

During World War II, Turing helped crack the German Enigma code at Bletchley Park. He is widely regarded as the father of theoretical computing and artificial intelligence.
