One is obviously mathematics, especially since lecturers do like

I don't know if I agree on this. If mathematics is a good
preparation for programming class it should be because it
teaches student "how to think" not because the teacher happens
to like math.
Actually I would say that a teacher that uses math for examples
without regard to the students background etc is a bad teacher
(why use math exempals if you're teaching programming to people
with no interest in math)
