What was Alan Turing’s profession before he worked for the government?
A
Mechanic
B
Mathematician
C
Nurse
D
Teacher
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Computer designer. In 1945, the war over, Turing was recruited to the National Physical Laboratory (NPL) in London to create an electronic computer.

Detailed explanation-2: -Turing first trained as a mathematician at King’s College of Cambridge University, UK. His work there culminated in his seminal paper “On Computable Numbers“, published in 1936 when he was just 24.

Detailed explanation-3: -Turing’s main contribution to mathematics, however, was his work on computation theory. Presaging the invention of the modern computer, Turing designed an abstract computing device known as the Turing machine-an entirely virtual construct which could perform calculations and follow instructions.

Detailed explanation-4: -It is easy to cast him as a misfit, the stereotypical professor. But actually Alan Turing was never a professor, and his nickname ‘Prof’ was given by his codebreaking friends at Bletchley Park. Now Dermot Turing has taken a fresh look at the influences on his uncle’s life and creativity, and the creation of a legend.
