How did you get admitted to a Masters program without a background in CS? Most CS departments (Masters, PhD) look for standard courses in programming and data structures. I ask a fellow pure math degree holder with little CS coursework. I intend to pursue a PhD in CS and enrolled as a post-bac to make up the coursework to then apply for graduate programs.

Same route. Had to take the pre reqs. Honestly it seemed more time consuming than anything compared to higher level math courses
