Explore the fascinating intersection of modern C++ programming and World War II cryptography in this conference talk from ACCU 2023. Delve into the history of the Enigma machine encryption and its cryptanalysis at Bletchley Park, then witness a modern approach to breaking the code using C++20 and contemporary computing power. Learn how to leverage a 16-core CPU and advanced programming techniques to tackle the Enigma problem, comparing the methods to those used by Alan Turing and his team. Discover the potential of micro-benchmarking and multi-core processing in cracking complex encryption, while gaining insights into the evolution of computational problem-solving from the 1940s to the present day.
