Math isn’t required? You know that one of the basic building blocks of a CPU is called an ALU, right?

yes. it does the math for me

seriously, though, of course there is math in the computer science course of study, although the logic and algorithmic aspects of it are the most important parts. i use the logic from the ‘discreet math’ course and tools from the analysis of algorithms class much more than i do the calculus and linear algebra, altho vectors and matrix multiplication can come in handy in some esoteric contexts. and most of all you need lots of patience, an unhealthy amount of stubborness, and strong coffee

do you write code?

Vectors and matrix math are not so esoteric when coding graphics.
