Is it true nga good ka in math, good pud ka sa programming?

Mathematics is not necessary to be a good programmer. You will need to use your common sense to be a good programmer.

[messerchtmitt]

No matter how good you are in memorizing the syntaxes, functions, APi and so forth, and even practicing your favorite language, still if you don't use your common sense, you cannot solve the requirements or a certain problems. It's a matter of using your head not your feet.

dako ug chance nga mo excel sa programming

naa koy mga classmates before na maau kaau sa math na mga babaye... as in maau jud. pero nangahagbong ra sa among course sayang kaau...

naa koy kaila gipang uno ang calculos pero gi panghagbong ang ubang comsci subjects, naa ra jud na if ganahan jud nimo

naa koy kaila gipang uno ang calculos pero gi panghagbong ang ubang comsci subjects, naa ra jud na if ganahan jud nimo

naypa nag math major siya, reality in college mas maayo ma perfect ang major kay sa minor....


this is one of misconception in programming, it should be stopped... sa programming common sense raman jud dapat... dili na kinahanglang sag-uhon ang syntax... pero kung mabuhat na nimo aw maayo!

Is this true?

all good in math, are good in programming
but not all good in programming are good in math...

?

mao ni akong tubag.

true and false = FALSE.

no relationship....

bogo ko ug math pero kabalo ko sa programming..

and currently im a senior systems developer sa isa ka company dinhi sa cebu... hehehehe

[dahonsakamunggay]

kamao kog math pero di mn ko maayog programing oy. naa ra gyud guro kung hilig nimu or not. ug i think programing isnt about math, its about LOGIC.

[labyrinthbw]

i think mathematics and programming are different fields.
but both require logical reasoning.
so it does not conclude that if ur good in one, ur also good in the other.

Thanks to the guy who liked my post, I didn't know somebody left me a question here and that was like, 3 years ago!

In C how would you write a single statement that test's the number if it is a power of two? Can you do that? Without loops? As loops takes up some time to initialize and make some evaluations.

Lucky for me, I remember this being a good dare back in my Computing Mathematics and I would be humiliated if I didn't know about this. I barely remember a part of it, but here it is.

Convert the number to binary (use bitwise operators). If it contains 1 bit, then it's a number of a power of two.

See: Power of two - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

in 320x200pixels vertically, how would you draw a circle without floating point numbers. I'm giving you the function void PointCircle (int x, int y, int r), leaving you with this hint: (x ** 2 + y ** 2 = r ** 2)

I'll think about this and this is a good mind tickle. I'll let you guys know what my answer.

The answer is no, you need common sense / logic lang
