[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you have to ask, you're not going to comprehend the explanation tbh.[/quote] This is correct. Longerform answer: Computer science IS math. The type of reasoning you need to build solid software is very akin to mathematical reasoning. And that’s not even saying anything about data analysis like that needed for profiling, algorithms, or things like queuing theory in network programming. A bit harsh but it’s late so I’ll be blunt: being a low-level code monkey doesn’t require much math. But that’s not really computer science and it’s not where the bucks are.[/quote] +1 to all of this. If you're not good at math, it's honestly better to save yourself (and your poor professors!) the trouble and just study something like law. No reasoning ability needed there.[/quote]
