(1) sometime ago i read a blog of Stevey-Drunken's on "Maths everyday".
the distinctional points he proposed in his blog are exactly similar to
the ones i have got after doing some programming for 6 months. but he
had his points by reading "John Von Neumann and the Origins of Modern
Computing". I dont know him & neither i read that book but the points
he noticed & points i noticed are similar in many respects.
Taht's all very nice, but has absolutely nothing whatsoever to
do with the C++ programming language, so it's 100% off-topic here.
As you may have noticed, you got a lot of replies, but none
that really helped you a lot. That's what happens when you get
waaaaay off-topic.
Try these newsgroups instead:
sci.math (I set follow-up here)
alt.math
alt.math.moderated
I think you'll get MUCH better responses there.
The reason is, computer programming is a skill which requires
relatively little mathematics. About all you need to know is:
1. Grade-school arithmetic.
2. A little boolean algebra (and, or, not, DeMorgan's Law, etc)
3. A little bit of high-school algebra helps sometimes (optional)
That's it. Any 14-year-old knows those things already.
Simply not true unless you want to program like a 14 year old.
