Re:Poll: Do you have a CS degree? by LauriL on Sunday April 01, 2012 @10:47PM (#3786035)
I have a degree in history. In addition, I've studied a few CS and higher math courses in the university.

The math, algorithm and data structure courses have been useful for my programming career.

I love coding, and I'm self-taught. I believe its possible to be a great programmer even without a formal degree, if you are passionate. The vice versa doesn't hold.

The course that I miss in the CS degree I dropped out is compilers.
