good upper div maths for a cs major

[a_weasel]

<p>recommend me some good upper div maths for a cs major.</p>

<p>i'm trying to shy away from more calculus (if i need to take it, fine--i'm just tired of all the ***** work that goes along with calc).</p>

<p>some that looked interesting to me are</p>

<p>115--intro to number theory
116--cryptography
128a--numerical analysis</p>

<p>Also, 104(intro to analysis) looks like its a prereq to a lot of classes. is this a really important, valuable class?</p>

<p>is more linear algebra a good idea? (for that matter, why do i even need linear algebra in the first place? i havent taken 54 yet--decided to take 53 this semester, and i spent last year gettin thru 1A and 1B)</p>

<p>are there any classes that blew your mind and i absolutely have to take?</p>

<p>much thanks in advance for any advice/info/comments.</p>

<p>Are you considering a math minor, or are you just taking some upper-div math for fun?</p>

<p>It looks like none of the classes you mentioned (except 104) is critical for further studies in math. By critical classes I mean classes like 110, 113 and 104. They're qualifiers for lots of interesting math classes.</p>
