Seeing that you're asking a question such as this one, I'm going to assume that you're fairly new to programming. Given that assumption, even if a person were to answer with "programming" (and give a defined/acceptable reason for their opinion), you wouldn't be able to fully understand their answer. When it comes to math, all I can say is: "If you view math as 'math', you're viewing it the wrong way". Math isn't just /math/, it's communication within itself, via multiple, eternally philosophical languages. It's a unique and extremely underused form of communication that uses an INFINITE number of languages to exchange ideas, reason, facts, etc., using NOT words, but RAW logic. Math is communication via raw reasoning, analysis, and logic. Programming is meant to be viewed in exactly the same way, except instead of it being communication via raw logic, it's communication via 'logical' forms of whatever language is being spoken to the receiving-end of the communication. Do not make the mistake of thinking that programming-based communication is different enough from math-based communication to the point of viewing them as two 'logically' different concepts. They are the exact same thing. They differ only by the purposes for their existence. So, to answer your question: neither is "easier". One just happens to be usable within every scenario (existent & nonexistent), while the other is moreso aimed at either creating something, justifying something, or manipulating something. Your question reminds me of another question: "Which one is better - Pepsi or Coca-Cola?" There is no definite answer. It's opinion-based. You'll see that both concepts/topics are infinitely more philosophical than you view them now, once you gain a fair amount of experience.

Well both go side by side. You WILL encounter the need of math in your algorithms in one way or the other. Some find math to be interesting and programming to be tiresome, and some consider programming to be fun and challenging while maths to be kinda boring. For me, well programming helped garner interest in Maths.

You can't compare them in such general terms. Maths could mean: 1 + 1 = 2, or 17372^16.12a = 151a Programming could mean: print("Hello World"), or include an entire game.

Not necessarily... some maths gets very in-depth.

@james but all the works of maths can also be done by programming
