When you study CompSci (depending on where IG) you tend to see them that way when trying to mathematically prove something about an algorithm. It's only really a good way of thinking if you're into coding, but I don't think a teacher for a non-coding related algebra class should show this, it can be really confusing for some people.

I liked this so much I tried to find more. A few seconds googling turned up a lot, but this is the first hit: https://amitness.com/2019/08/math-for-programmers/

Hi, you can look into "discrete mathematics" if you're interested in the overall subject of math for programmers, it was one of my hardest class but highly intesting!

That sounds perfect because I don't want anyone to know I'm studying math.

I was "good at math" in school and all through uni. Discrete mathematics crushed me.
