The lynx is a wild cat that lives in forests. They are incredible hunters and have amazing hearing and eyesight – a lynx can spot a mouse from 250 meters away! Lynx are still found in mainland Europe, but went extinct in the UK many hundreds of years ago due to habitat loss and persecution.
During the summer, the lynx has a short red or brown coat, but in winter this is replaced by a much thicker grey coat for extra warmth. The dark spots on the coat are for camouflage, and the pattern on the lynx’s coat is determined by Turing’s Patterns.
Turing's Early Life
Alan Turing sometimes struggled at school, and his handwriting was the messiest writing his teachers had ever seen. Turing was almost stopped from taking his exams because his teachers thought he would fail. However, despite his teachers’ gloomy predictions, in 1931 Turing won a scholarship to the University of Cambridge to study maths. After graduating, Turing completed a Ph.D. in mathematical logic and in 1936, he published a paper which laid the foundations of computer science.
