Math is an important part of computer science. But what math is most important? An overview of math topics useful in CS is outlined below.

Discrete Math
This is a branch of mathematics that is mainly concerned with the uses of sets and integers.

Probability
Probability is a study of the odds that a particular event will occur. This area of math is often grouped under the discrete math title but has a strong presence outside the computer world as well.

Boolean and Binary Algebra
A computer’s state, at its lowest level, is a mass of what we call 1’s and 0’s, and yet computers can do so much for us in our daily lives.This is how 1’s and 0’s build up into websites, word processors, and video games.
