Introduction:
Computer science is one of those streams of science that primarily deals with mathematics. The mathematical foundations in computer science are very strong. Applied mathematics plays a major role in the field of computer science. In many streams of science, mathematics and computer science are together applied to solve various issues. Various fields of computer science such as database, computer graphics, computer architecture, encryption, etc. greatly depend on mathematics. Mathematics is a very important section in all the streams of science. Mathematical formulas and calculations cover a major portion in the study of computer science.
Mathematics and different streams of Computer Science:
The programming languages that play very important role in the study of computer science are also based on major mathematical foundations. These programming languages are all about mathematical calculations. Every step of programming involves mathematical equations. Like programming, the algorithms are also greatly dependent on the mathematical calculations. The mathematical foundations in computer science are so strong that you can find the reflection in all the individual sections of computer science, like programming languages and algorithms.

In database too, the mathematical foundation is very strong. The process of storing data in the computer systems also involves various mathematical calculations. Computer architecture is another mathematics-based field in computer science. Besides these, computer graphics and artificial intelligence are also greatly based on mathematics.
