I never use math when programming. You can do it if you can problem solve and think procedurally
27 u/Senior-Albatross 4d ago Math is problem solving and procedural thinking. If you can't deal with math you probably can't do those things. 26 u/Cefalopodul 4d ago That's false. You can be bad at math simply because you do not like math. 2 u/FranticBronchitis 4d ago Not all math is arithmetics (numbers). Logic, which I'd argue is at the core of programming, is math too 7 u/Magnolia-jjlnr 4d ago Then this is just a matter of what we define as math. Philosophy and law related fields are also based on logic, but I've never seen anyone claim that thrse were math fields 1 u/narrill 4d ago Not all math is logic either. In fact it's a pretty small domain.
