Functionally I see many non math people struggle to understand rate of change.
I find integrals useful.
Also I see my computer science pals have a lack of faith in math. I don't understand why.
- kharak 7y agoWhat do you mean by lack of faith? Not trusting mathematical proofs?
- macintux 7y agoI can't speak for GP, but I'd speculate "lack of faith that understanding the math behind computer science will provide any real value as a programmer".
- kharak 7y agoAh, then I'm right behind. But it's not that more Math knowledge wouldn't help at all, just that the cost to benefit ratio seems not worth it. I never needed actual Math in my career so far.
