ramgp | 12 years ago | on: Poll: What level of math is programming roughly analogous to?
Creating a software solution (program or app, whichever is it called these days) goes beyond programming/coding it, and it often depends on the problem you're trying to solve aka the problem domain or simply domain. That's why creating an mobile app to track a list of things to do on a person's day requires a different process for creating it than creating a solution for an self flying aircraft, weapon, banking, or medical system.
So, I don't think programming in general is bound to any math level. Some systems may require some specific math in order to create an adequate solution for them.
