It sounds like you lack some Computer Science knowledge. Try to find/take some, during which you will know what math areas are important if that's your thing.

It sounds like you lack some Computer Science knowledge. Try to find/take some, during which you will know what math areas are important if that's your thing. It's not the same when you go to a tech university to get a B.S. degree in CS, but it's very doable. Nowadays a lot of video resources are available. Buckle up and good luck :)
