I read somewhere that 3 out of every 2 developers suck at math.

I love Maths, so much that I never cared to get into its complications and try to unravel it. 👦

So then you must be in group 3.. or group d? ;)

0.1 + 0.2 = 0.30000000000000004

and why is this a rant?

Ahhahahaaaaaahahaha!!!

LOL

I do suck at math. Like A LOT

@VonKavalier Same here. 😂

Here i am ahahah

Seems like a lots of us. So it proves your point. 👍👍

It's like saying that if your good python dev than you suck at Java. Completely unrelated. You might be good or bad. Usually you have a basic understanding of math, which is a tool and an actual language that works with quantities and how they are related to each other.

@shasha In my view and of course I may differ, is mathematic calculation really necessary for writing intense algorithms and things like that. what is the role of maths. In my field almost nil.

@EpIcInCoGnItO use punctuation ;)

It depends on your field. It doesn't hurt to know more but it's not necessarily useful for everyone.

If you're just a we developer with same type of projects than you don't have to know much. If you're computer engineer, you have to.

@shasha Good to know that, but Maths was never my forte.

If your weekend projects are like for me a day tracer... you better know your maths pretty well ;-)
