RE: Turing, who hates it like I do?
I've not covered Turing the language in my CS course, but I have been taught about Turing the person's role in the development of the computer. In fact, he wrote the first program for the first computer, the SSEM, later the Manchester Mk1.
Interesting fact:
There's a statue of Turing in Manchester, between the University of Manchester Sackville St building, and the Gay Village on Canal Street.
