Personally I absolutely suck at maths, the only maths I use now is basic mental arithmetic. I'm also completely self taught, but agree with your concept that it's a "way of thinking", because I am a very logical person.

- NickPollard 16y agoI think a really important thing that many people realise is that Maths is not just numbers. Arguably most of Computer Science is a kind of Maths, really Maths is just an abstract notation for describing systems. For Programmers in particularly, I think Mathematical Functions[1] and Set theory[2] are some important areas that you should look at.
