  and cryptographer known as 'the father of information theory'.\n\nShannon
  is famous for having founded information theory with a landmark paper tha
 t he published in 1948. However\, he is also credited with founding both d
 igital computer and digital circuit design theory in 1937\, when\, as a 21
 -year-old master's degree student at the Massachusetts Institute of Techno
 logy (MIT)\, he wrote his thesis demonstrating that electrical application
 s of boolean algebra could construct and resolve any logical\, numerical r
 elationship. Shannon contributed to the field of cryptanalysis for nationa
 l defense during World War II\, including his basic work on codebreaking a
 nd secure telecommunications.\n
