The latest winner of the ACM turing award according to the ACM website is Alan Kay.
The link that exists between Alan Key and this course, is that he "pioneered many of the
ideas at the root of contemporary object-oriented programming languages." This type of object-oriented programming
is the type that we will be using this semester in Java. We have also been practicing "good object oriented design" for all
of our assignments so far. His contributions had an impact on this "good object oriented design."
