It helps much to understand the basics of algebra (especially algebraic structures such as boolean algebras, finite fields or groups), linear algebra, analysis and arithmetic. Also a fundamental knowledge about discrete mathematics and numerical analysis can be very helpful. The very basics of set theory also would be fine.

Mayank Thakur Iā€™m not worried, i plan to start quite littereally from the beggining, at learning to count(even though counting isnt a problem for me), my ultimate goal on programming is learning, C, C++, C#, Objective C, Java, Python, and the programming language used to make iOS apps, after that my next ultimate goal is learning Physics and chemistry(moreso for personal knowledge gain, a better understanding of how things work in Space(Physics and Chemistry are very helpfull)
