simplest key-systems – given to Britain and France in 1939 –, was certainly crucial, but it was not sufficient for the continuation and extension of Enigma code breaking over the next six years. New ideas were essential. In 1939-40, Alan Turing and another Cambridge mathematician: Gordon Welchman, further developed a new machine; the British Bombe. The basic property of the Bombe was that it could break any Enigma-encrypted message, provided that the hardware of the Enigma was known and that a plain-text ‘crib’ of about 20 letters could be guessed accurately. A simulator of the Bombe can be found at the following web address:
Apple’s Logo
I know of several theories on the origin and creation of the desired ‘apple with bite’ logo, so I’m going to collect the most interesting I’ve found, without forgetting that Apple has had different logos throughout its history. old-fashioned point of view. It depicts Newton reading under an apple tree, surrounded by the name of Apple Computer Co. and the text: ‘Newton… A Mind Forever Voyaging Through Strange Seas of Thought … alone’.
The first logo was designed by Ronald Wayne in 1976, shortly after the founding of the company.
