To all you people wondering if math plays big role in programming

Well it does. At least for me. When I started programming at collage I was absolute beginner. I coudnt even name 2 programming languages. It is very hard to convert from math to program way thinking. But once you do everything starts making sence. And i asure you I have less problems when it comes to understanding new abstract concepts, and programming on higher level then someone who has poor math knowledge. It is okay not to know it. It is not okay to distance yourself completely from it

Yes, I agree. But i see many people addapting to idea of not needing math. You cant reach your greatness if you dont support by math. Programming is like oreo and math is milk. Seperately it works for some people. But always goes together

I agree with Nomeh,but i prefer programming with math,its not by decoration we learn operators and logic in programming,it always had an explanation,math can improve in programming and programming can improve in math,the answer to you is what we study in IT course on university,most of the grade is math.

yes not all math is usefull. But still it develops your logical skills to the point where it could never be developed by programing only.So break that aversion wall that you built towards math and just learn. There is no easy way og doing anything. If you want to be a programer you have to work for it. If you want easy and fast way to become one you will most likely fail.

I would say that analytical thinking skills are critical to be a good programmer because coding is more on building algorithms than math itself!
