I don't know. Saying "math" is essential to modern day programming/coding is like saying it's essential to auto mechanics. I mean, I guess, but not really. I regularly joke about my inability to add/subtract as "that's what computers are for." While reading code, initial programming statements may resemble Algebra 1 formulas but they quickly devolve into verbose patterns and human styles that feel more in line with my verbal than my quantitative side.
