How much math?

Name: Anonymous 2012-09-12 1:01

Hello, /prog/. I'm currently going to school for computer science, and I was curious as to how math-intensive real-world programming is. Can you get by just being comfortable with arithmetic and algebra? Or do you need to be able to do Calculus and Trigonometry like a professional to actually be able to be good and employable?

look at this dude:

that is a typical algebraic puzzle, but the dude completely solves it by random clicking. Same with math - you can do a rotation by just brute-forcing the trigonometry-table, without knowing anything about math.
