You should try that kind of things. Although that depends on which language are you working, I would encourage you to look for tutorials which doesn't involve maths. Internet is full of those too :-)
Good luck with that!
- klrr 14y agoThanks for the reply! :-) I've read HTDP and K&R, and a little bit in Learn you a haskell, may you tell what books you've read that contained such examples as you mentioned?
- jdietrich 14y agoThose are all quite academic titles, aimed at computer science students who may end up writing complex algorithms. The overwhelming majority of programming titles expect no mathematical knowledge beyond basic arithmetic. You've chosen titles which are excellent for a serious student intent on mastering computer science, but they're very hard going if your aspiration is to be a working programmer. I would suggest choosing a project that you'd like to achieve and look for books that help you towards that end - as I said, practically all of them will require no significant mathematical knowledge.
