just in time for my DATA STRUCTURES AND ALGORITHMS final in a couple weeks

Lucky, at least you don't have to clean up the mess of an exploding brain.

I've met one teaching assistant in CS who thinks CS is never math. When I say to him that CS is math-ish, he consider me as a lunatic. He says things like "Is differential equations useful to CS? No. CS is a creative science, which means CS has nothing to do with that boring math. And in most cases, equations don't fit well with the Nature. Because there is always an error in measurement, which demonstrates that the mathematics is inferior."He twists everything to look down mathematics. it is almost insulting that some people equates mathematics with non-creativeness.

Chances are a person taking a Psych major can't do anything worthwhile. That's why they're in a Psych major.

darkcrystal,you, sir, are right on the mark.

I must say, I'm currently just heading into my final year for my CompSci Maths degree and this stuff isn't related at all... Well, nothing is there that I've never seen or don't know, I might've learnt it back in the day but haven't found a use for most of it...Currently a Software Engineer aswell (full-time) and still studying, haven't really come across it...Oh well, if you find me a use, let me know ;)

Computer Science is basically math. The programming is application and the math is the theory it runs on. Many school still have CS as part of the Math department actually, although here at NJIT it's part of the College of Computing Sciences. If you want to cut the theory and only program you are thinking of a technical school perspective, which is fine for day to day programming. Theory only comes in when you are heavy into research, making new algorithms, etc...

This is where you're wrong, CS at my school has to study all of that. in courses like Theory of Computation, Analysis of Algorithm, Discrete Structure, etc... I mean the sheet listed, permuation, recurrences, Big-O notation, Summation, Graphs, Sets, and Tree theories, etc.. I think no other major has to study any of that stuff except CS and Math majors, even engineering majors don't have to study some of those theoretical courses, but they have their own courses like EM, Signal and Systems, Electronics, etc.. which uses calculus, linear algebrea and diffential equations. CS at my school has to study all the calculus, linear alg, mathematical statistics (some call it engineering stats), Univ Physics, and all those theories listed above. However, that doesn't mean we will use them afterward, but it gives you a foundation and the knowledge on how to apply them, if you need to use them later on. My co-workers are CS, CE, and EE, but we hardly use anything higher than cal I at work, mostly algebraic stuff to solve our problems; occasionally, I get to apply Big-O to find out the upper bound and lower bound of some functions/algorithm I design. Big-O will help you evaluate how efficient your algorithm is.

Ehehe, third here, damn that mathematical induction, I looked at my old CS test, i got them right, but now, I can hardly do it again. It always get me.

Those stuff are for computer scientist, when they work to design a new network algorithm, a new compiler, new programming language, make robots smarters, etc... Normal software development simply take what has been developed by a computer scientist and develop software applications with it. Example, when a computer scientist work to improve our online security by developing a new encryption method, he/she needs to know a lot of math and complex algorithm.

Half way through your second year is nothing yet, wait until the end of your third year and final year, in classes like Theory of Compuation, Discrete Structures, Analysis of Algorithm, etc... you will get the chance to learn most of the stuff on that sheet.
