Well, without math, you won't be able to develop algorithms like a pro
>>
>>107096881
Coding ability is not ability to write algorithms and nobody said it was. Let's see someone who doesn't know linear algebra derive FFT
>>
>>107096957
Algorithms are defined with symbolic *language*, not with numbers
>>
>>107096994
Which is math

Of course a woman would make these claims

ITT brainlets. Python is exceptionally verbose for a programming language and it's users don't need algorithms and shit unless they are data scientists and even then, there's probably a library for what they are trying to do.
If you performed this study with x86 assembly or whatever the results would be close to inverse.

This just means "can do grade-school arithmetic", nothing to do with statistics, calculus, linear algebra, or formal logic.

And programming what kind of code?
Readme.txt and ecommerce-cart.py?

This is such useless slop. So what? Why do I need to predict my coding ability? I already know what my coding ability is. This whole paradigm where you see some shitty data from a dogshit study and then you're supposed to compare yourself to their hypothetical Average Human Bean is so fucking retarded FUCK OFF SNEEDNIgGERS
>>
>>107096881
you can "code" my ass in your pussy
but if you can't understand basic fucking logic, then you are fucked. and then there is the fact that you won't be able to produce good code without math.
the math "requirement" is not really math itself, but about the mentality and skills that come with it.

>language aptitude helps you learn syntax
Learning syntax is the least important part of programming. I don't understand how someone could miss the point of an entire field of study so badly.
>>
>>107096881
Im a retard anyway
>>
>>107096881
lmao it do be like that frfr
>>
i guess it depends on what you want to do. you arent going to english book your way into linear transformations.
>>
>>107096881
As a mathlet who has been programming for like 18 years, not knowing anything past the most basic algebra has severely held me back.
>>
>>107099573
I get where you're coming from on this, but lets be honest. you save a ton of time if you're not like me and having to look up a bunch of syntax all the time.
>>
I open 4chan
All I get is Twitter
>>
>>107099684
Yes you save time by not looking up syntax, but you save a lot more time by not having to look up how to do binary search or quick sort.
>>
My first thought here is multicollinearity.
Language skill correlates with Math skill.
It's a bit silly to conclude "therefore Language > Math" when what you really showed was IQ matters, and IQ is both Language and Math.

every time I post a thread that might be interesting, I get <100 replies. the most interesting and on-topic ones get <10. no wonder there are less and less users here, and the ones left are fucking retarded.

Many such cases. It's cause the retards (like me) don't value their time enough to lose patience with the captcha hell that this shithole of a site implemented.

I've noticed that many of the popular boards have users who inspire transgender discussion under the guise of on-topic posting.
For /a/, these users use Onimai, the transgender anime.
For /v/, they use Sphere Hunter, a transgender vidya e-celeb.
For /g/, they use Laurie, a tech e-celeb who is at least masculine enough to cast her (his?) gender into question every time.

The ACM is a patriarchal WASP organization. No wonder all the winner of the prizes are 70 yo rich white dudes.

anon... that's an exercise that asks you to prove that certain operation meets a given definition. it's vector algebra. just numbers. highly abstracted, sure, but in the end it's about numbers and functions.
>>
>>107096881
She has to whip out her dick already
>>
>>107102642
these are neither numbers nor "language". the text is input that you read and that you then turn into some amorphous abstract thing in your mind that you can think about. the same way you feed the compiler text input and it turns it into an AST. I don't think anyone who is good at math thinks about the actual words after having read and understood the problem but I might be wrong.

Programming is 99% just being autistic enough to keep working on something without any positive feedback, blindly trusting that by writing more code the thing will eventually do something desirable.

Well no shit you don't need math if you do something trivial. Ask them to write a chemical level combustion solver for rocket engines or a simulation for 5G propagation.

What your education level? 3rd grade?

if this was conducted recently it's very possible it's gauging people's ability to communicate with chatGPT.
