Are all programmers very good at math?

Most programming jobs do not require more than being able to read a formula and solving the answer with a calculator.

Well I can't speak for everybody but I am not good at it. I get by with my knowledge. If I can't figure it out I use Google. Once you have your formula the rest is easy. That is my opinion.

Not in the beginning. But along the way, each one of them programmers learns something or the other about using sines and cosines! But for everyday application in codes, just the basic arithmetic knowledge is sufficient. The rest of the formulas ( if there's any issue ) can be found and verified on some search engine and then done using a scientific calculator.

If i say , i am not as good in Maths and the way to understand it is quite difficult. But its becoming bit better in here Sololearn. I have lots of codes and syntax's on maths to see and understand them on Sololearn. Its makes quite easy setup and good interface to get it. I believe Maths is important and it can be made easy with your interest subject. I love coding . I got it.

No, not necessarily. I study computer science and this has the reputation of "Math for people who are bad at math". I'd say I'm quite good at math myself, but I'm nothing compared to mathematicians or physicians. If we're talking about school level math (mostly arithmetics): I guess so, because both math and programming train your abstract thinking.

Not all coders are good in math, but it is easier to code when you are good at math.

No. The math formulas is different than straight math equations. You have to use programs math method so it recongnizes it, cant just plug in an equation.
