Yes, but what do you program?

I've been programming for 24 years and I use math all the time.
Recently I've been working with Marcus Hutter on a new learning
algorithm based on a rather nasty mathematical derivation.  The
results kick butt.  Another tricky derivation that Hutter did a few
years back is now producing good results in processing gene
expression data for cancer research.  I could list many more...

Anyway, my point is, whether you need math in your programing
or not all depends on what it is that you are trying to program.
