Are poor math skills a problem?

Question

I would like to to start learning code, but math is not my strong suit. Do you need to be great at math to be a successful coder? I ask because my first major in college was computer engineering and I failed miserably because of the advanced math concepts. I did love playing with q basic as a kid, though. (think I just dated myself a little lol)

Answer 1

kevin, as long as you are capable of using a calculator, your good lol

Answer 2

no you don't need to. just clear the basic concepts. i am also not good at math... you just need to develop simple logic thats it. programming all about simplicity nothing else

Answer 3

Its not mandatory to be very good in Mathematics for Java.

Answer 4

Being good at math definitely helps... programming is all about designing algorithms and making complex things simpler...there is a reason why people say "mathematics is the mother of all sciences"... :-)
