I am doing an essay on how you use math to write computer programs. Where can I find information on this? I know how to write programs but I need some resources.
Answer
They are very, very related. If you get really into into it, math and computers are one and the same. A Computer Science major has to take very advanced math courses.
Here are some of the ways they are related:
1. In programming, use must often use functions such as finding average, finding GCD, finding exponents, etc. Those are just for easy programs.
2. Computers stores data in binary, decimal, octal, and hexadecimal. These are all different bases (number systems). Because programs must access and manipulated computer data, you need to know how to count, add, multiply, divide, in different bases and change values to different bases.
3. Even a beginning programmer must know the difference between integers, floating point(decimal) numbers, exponents, and arrays, and when to use them.
