Depends.

Matrices and vectors are very important in many spheres.

depends what you're doing.

I do lot's of embedded/kernel space programming.
For embedded things I never had need for doing anything harder than matrixes and basic high school algebra. For drivers in kernel space (graphical drivers) I had to do a lot of trigonometry. But never antyhing harder than things that are in every college. Just pay attention on the fucking classes and don't miss them.

Math is easy, programming is super easy.

"Programming" is kind of a broad subject, what kind of programming do you intend to do?

At any rate, for most kinds of (non-trivial) programming projects you need at least some knowledge of the below subjects:
>Formal and proposition logic
>Statistics
>Algorithms (if you could only learn one subject, pick this one)
>Linear Algebra
>Basic Calculus

Try Radon & Fourier transforms if you're into image processing.
>>
>>52524749
whatever kind you want desu
But unless you're doing something unusual you can almost always use an existing library.

>>52524749
ALL THE MATHS!?
