Math or code?

It seems the JS challenge is focused more on strong math skill than it is code skill. Some would argue that strong math skills and code skills go hand in hand but what is the point of knowing and understanding the code but failing on math and getting incorrect answers. I think we should all take time to review quizzes and focus on questions that teach syntax, rules, problem solving, tip n tricks etc. Math is important, but code is what matters here. What is your take?

To be honest, most difficult math here is 24%7, 2*3*4 or 11 + 16.

Of course not. There are problems, resolved with programming algorytms. This is usually difference form mathematic solution. Because a computer computes fast, but dully.
