Is coding requires good mathematical skill?

Question

New learner here. I heard from someone that, if you want to be a good coder, you have to be insanely good in math. Is that true?

Answer 1

insanely no
but the better yes!
a recent example : for simulations i knew how to do it but then i found that if i applied the runge-kutta method, it was nicer and so ... costs nothing to learn it

that i saw but what if i already knew it? it helps a lot

if you want to see a real impact ,
for an exercise,
see the programming languages coded / invented by mathematicians and let us say linguists and see the popularity index, the difference is clear !

Answer 2

Maybe yes for making scientific things.
No in general, for example making web sites.

Answer 3

Thinking is structures is taught im mathematics.
sin, cos, .... are good for animations.
if you want to be good coder, you should have a passion for coding.
you must be ready to learn ... even some matbematic.

Answer 4

Thank you guys. so I don't have any other choice but to review some mathematical expression. hehe
