Alan Turing אלן טיורינג

Alan Turing (אלן טיורינג): English computer scientist (1912–1954). Read at skips 2–5,000, the Torah holds 871,665 sequences of אלן (from Alan Turing), the shortest at skip 2 (Genesis 3:17); chance alone would give about 872,475.

In the Torah

A name of more than one word is searched one word at a time, as the laboratory does: the counts on this page are for אלן, and טיורינג has its own figure under the other spellings, each beside its chance figure.

871,665 sequences of אלן at skips 2–5,000 in the Torah, close to the 872,475 that chance alone would produce.

The shortest skip at which אלן appears in the Torah is 2 — the first at Genesis 3:17, reading forward.

At every skip the Torah allows (2–152,424), אלן is found 13,366,011 times; chance alone would give about 13,522,980.

A three-letter spelling is common at these skips: in a text of 304,850 letters chance alone produces about 872,475 of it, so a large count is expected.
