Default Lorenz

It has been revealed in a recent BBC TV documentary...Bletchley Codebreakers, The Forgotten Heroes that the most important German High Command strategic orders were encripted on a far more complex machine than the ENIGMA... called LORENZ. The breaking of codes encripted on LORENZ was a truly amazing feat, intitially accomplished by a young British mathmatician named William Tutte. He later became a professor in the Maths Dept of the University of Waterloo,Ontario , Canada. Only now can his story be told and along with that of Tommy Flowers who engineered the Collosus. It is claimed that William Tutte taught the young fellows who later devised the encription coding system used for RIM's Blackberry.
