      Intellectually I like maths. Practically though it’s just a tool that I use to help me do parts of my job. The actual maths I use here is not very complicated, probably no higher than GCSE-level so while I do like reading about more complex maths that I enjoy, I tend not to use that in real life.

      To be honest I don’t enjoy maths, but it is a good tool to understand things during life and is definitely needed. If you were to study things that are computing related it can be helpful to understand how code works and how it can work using specific calculations that a system would understand.

      Psychology is how people work.
      Biology is how psychology works.
      Chemistry is how biology works.
      Physics is how chemistry works.
      Maths is how physics works.
      Maths is how computers work too.
      I’ve always appreciated the pervasive influence maths has on behaviour, computing, nature, and the universe.
      It doesn’t mean that I like doing it!
