Math Questions!

Question

Why there are a lot of math questions in the python challenge like 1 or 2 of the challenge are about math
I hate those questions as I am a programmer not a mathematician!
Also it would take time to solve the equation!
In addition I have lost most challenges as it requires some math calculating..

Answer 1

Programming usually involves some math, so some challenges require a little math knowledge.

Keep practicing! The challenge questions are designed to learn quick skimming of code snippets. The more familiar you get with Python, the easier it will become!

Answer 2

As I tried to explain, the purpose is "to develop a fast overview/ intuition" – that's why the time is limited

Answer 3

I know that but still it needs time, the purpose of challenges to analyse the question and understand them not memorize the answer
