If you knew more MATH, you'd know that. Let's draw a venn diagram, and see if we can find an item in each area. Algebra is math related and programming related. Principles of Object Oriented Programming are not strictly math-related, but are abstractions, as math is an abstraction. Discrete mathematics is incredibly useful to programmers, as is statistics. Calculus seldoms come up for most programmers, never yet for me in 30 years. | |
