Yep. I agree. Knowing the logic behind math, namely what values need to be where in a formula and processing it in order, is a problem.

I think this is one of the reasons a bachelors degree in comupter science is so highly valued for too many jobs. The degree has a good amount of math requirements even though they're not needed for programming. I think the reason behind that is succeeding in that much logical thinking means you can learn/follow the rules/syntax of coding languages.

In the business world they hope people with that much understanding in math have a good head on their shoulders.
