Allan Turing was a British computer scientist who did many good things for computing. His most famous contribution was, as Wikipedia[1] tells us: “the Manchester Mark I then emerging as one of the world's earliest true computers”. Turing is also very famous for: “the now widely accepted "Turing" version of the Church–Turing thesis” which was another important contribution.

• B. “Turing’s contributions to computing”

Better English but cut-and-paste still visible through style change: I think that Turing made many contributions to computing. He made a significant and characteristically provocative contribution to the debate regarding artificial intelligence. Another important contribution was when he provided an influential formalisation of the concept of algorithm and computation with the Turing

• machine. I think a further contribution came from a number of

techniques for breaking German ciphers. Finally, a big contribution was creating one of the first designs for a stored-program computer.

• C. “Turing’s contribution to computing”

No original text: Alan Turing is often considered to be the father of modern computer science. With the Turing Test, he made a significant contribution to the debate regarding whether it will ever be possible to say that a machine is conscious and can think. He provided an influential formalisation with the Turing machine, formulating the now widely accepted "Turing" version of the Church–Turing thesis. During World War II, he devised a number

• f techniques for breaking German ciphers. After the war, he

created one of the first designs for a stored-program computer and in 1947 he moved to the University of Manchester to work, largely on software, on one of the world's earliest computers.
