I've seen so many examples now where adverts for jobs or courses say "Must have good Mathematics qualifications". It seems learning C, C++, Java, etc... is heavily related to Maths.
I've got a D in GCSE Maths. I think I'm one of many who could have been fairly decent at it, but it just wasn't a well taught subject in my School. When I did my GCSE the class I was in could only ever achieve a D as it's highest grade.
Do you think maths is a large part of programming?
If Yes - why and how does it come in?
If No - why do loads of adverts mention it?

I don't mind too much. I love Linux, I love coding, I love the whole VIM environment, of being in a black box and lots of technical stuff on the screen.
