Answer 2

Why not,not all aspects of programming involves the most complicated maths,storing profiles in databases doesn't require that much maths,dont misunderstand me,maths is still very critical to programming

Answer 3

When I think about it in my school days the best students in math could not do stochastics (which is a math topic). Why not?

Answer 4

Honestly, I'd say logic and problem solving skills are the backbone of coding. Math uses similar skills so if you've previously studied it you've demonstrated a similar skill set, but you can absolutely do well in coding without advanced math

Thanks for all of your answers really helpful!
