Not every programmer has need in math.
You decide if you want to work as a monkey coder or as an actual senior engineer

I know a lot of seniors with wonderful programming knowlange, but bad math

But programming (low level) is all about math

If you code games you need math
klimi
And then high level too because you need to know what the fuck you are programming
Oleksandr
I do not say it is bad or good. Just a fact
klimi
Okay
Oleksandr
But programming (low level) is all about math
I need knowledge in linear algebra to create a driver?)

Water physics? May be. Game is not only physics, its excellent architect and good resource managment, i think

Don't you do memory management?

It hard for me to give u fast answer(bad english)

You at least need basic math skills to write code.
Stephanos
what is a float?
Stephanos
in a float there is more math than in almost every other day-to-day job
Oleksandr
I can talk about memory segments, how it works, and what u need in practice
Oleksandr
😱you do it with no calculations?
Math != just calculation. Stop talking about math just like "2+2!=5 "

I can't argue with you anymore. I agree you can code without Math at all. I'm noob. 😉
Objection killed.

@apavlyuc , why do you think does your company hire consultants like andrey karpov? who doesn't do anything else than mathematical reasoning about your and your colleagues code?
Stephanos
just asking, no offense

Why do people calculate time complexity?

we are talking about the need for mathematics in general (for any coder, as the person said above). And you, in response, throw me a "special case." Fine.
Stephanos
in order to understand your own program, math is crucial.

Just one more thing, why do many universities include math in their courses for computer science? If math isn't needed or not important.
Edit: not many, show me one accredited university which does have courses without math at all.

There is no relationship between math and programming but many do believe there is a relationship between math and logical thinking or problem solving, programming is mostly about it so
