I’m working my way to a CS degree and am currently slogging my way through an 8-week Trig course. I barely passed College Algebra and have another Algebra and two Calculus classes ahead of me.
How much of this will I need in a programming job? And, more importantly, if I suck at Math, should I just find another career path?
If you really mean mathematics as in algebra and trigonometry, not much really. But arithmetic is a handy skill. A programmer should be able to at least add and subtract - especially doing UI stuff, which involves dealing with dimensions and positioning of elements on a page. You should be comfortable with numbers and not need a calculator to add up the widths of a few display columns, for example.
