What else will I need to know (besides programming languages) to become a successful software engineer?

Question

I'm curious as to how many different subjects I should be studying to become successful in the software industry... I'm seeing people mentioning that some form of mathematics tie into software development and I'm wondering if someone can shine some light on the way math is used and what else should I brush up on to become more adept in this art...

Answer 1

mabey to narrow it down I should let everyone know I'm really interested in game development
