Re: What Math Is Needed for Programming?

I'm interesting in studying OOP programming languages on my own: C, C++, Java. I haven't studied the big 4 math subjects in my last year of high school, Calculus, Algebra, Geometry, Statistics. Which of these subjects would I need to be able to understand some of more advanced concepts I may encounter in my studies. Do I necessarily need any of them at all?

Thanks
