I assume it depends on the department. CS students are afraid of non-integer values, engineering students are afraid of codes longer than 200 lines. Just kidding, mostly.

I do somewhat wonder if numerical methods have suffered from their success; like everybody uses LAPACK via Numpy but understanding it under the hood, that job always belongs to the next department over wherever you are, haha.
