Do i have to be a genius at math to learn code? I could have misunderstood that it's a programming language. Any clarification?

Question

no math no code?!?! give up?

Answer 1

Nope, very little math is required. Unless you are doing some kind of specialized programming, at most you'll use simple algebra. Some people say that the thinking processes for code and math are similar, but I disagree. They're much different in my experience.

Answer 2

It is very useful if you’re good at math but you don’t need to

Answer 3

Teaching yourself to code doesn't require much maths, says Emma Mulqueeny – just logic, and the ability to 'borrow' from other people's work.

Answer 4

Yes that is fine 😛.

Calculus is not mandatory.
Useful / helpful? Yes. If what you're doing is related to math or physics.

Answer 6

It's similar in many ways, especially the use of strict rules and order of operations, but overall programming is far easier than math (to me).

Answer 7

I'm pretty good at math but no rocket scientist..I mean as in I passed with a 4.0 in high school is that enough?? lol

Answer 8

as mentioned, it's not true.....
and even if it was...never give up

Answer 9

I ll highly recommend to watch this video first to understand the relevant branches of mathematics,

This guy has did an awesome job in helping u visualize it, must watch for beginners as well as professional

it ll give u a good idea of domains in mathematics which branch out to fields of programming.
