Too vague, what do you want to do specifically as a backend developer? What math are you good with and what are you bad with?
Grayson Fisher
....you can't be that bad at math just practice
algorithm, geometry theories, vector math etc
Chase Diaz
if web dev required math or a 3 digit IQ there would be 99% less webdevs now
you're good, focus on learning the tech
Eli Sanchez
So which is it?
Caleb Garcia
Math.
Connor Ward
Backend development doesn't require math at all.
Jason Gonzalez
node.js is the future of web development
Wyatt Mitchell
Backend doesn't require math. Less than 1% of things in cs require math
Caleb Bailey
tell that to the people making the fucking academic standards.
Jayden Taylor
Build up your weaknesses, but don't neglect your strengths.
Ethan Watson
Math in unis are pretty simple too. Just don't treat it as some calculation process but as numbers transformation.
Ethan Nelson
They teach math in CS more so as to filter the idiots and make sure you know how to think logically.
You'll never use differential equations unless you specifically seek this kind of job (and you'll probably need a PhD there too), but at least they know that if you passed Diff Equations then you're not braindead and can think logically and understand abstract and/or complex systems.
OP: It doesn't really matter that you don't *know* math, since you won't be using it besides HS stuff, but the fact that you're bad at math is probably an indicator that you're bad at thinking logically, that's why you're likely to fail in a developer career.
Daniel Nelson
Logic my ass. Math is just pattern recognition, taught that way and understood that way. You're not inventing new formula, but merely applying what other people came up with in a learned pattern.
Josiah Bell
>bad at math
download some math books, get yourself a notepad, practice some problems, and you're set.
Luis Long
Really?
Explain more please
Aiden Hall
only specialized areas of programming require math
Daniel Davis
gRPC + protobuf
relational databases -- postgres and mysql
Go, JavaScript, Python
Read this. It is the Bible of API design.

Uhhhh

Backend dev doesn't require maths, but it requires a genuine interest in programming. With front end tasks you at least get some stuff on a screen as a result of your work that you can look at and showcase to the world. With backend all you have is the knowledge that all the data is flowing through the right pipes at the rates they should.
If you can't appreciate that, you will never make it as a backender.

> learning any math or algorithms backend
HAHAHAHAHAHA

user, are you sure you're bad at math? or you just don't like it?
the thing that matters the most in this field is not what you know, but what you have potential to learn.
if you can solve a differential equation (even if you don't like it), then you can learn whatever the fuck you want. otherwise, give up.
if you don't have the potential to learn calculus, you don't have the potential to learn how to code.

Literally for any type of web development math is fucking useless and your job has a computer in front of you, learn JavaScript because nodejs is decently popular and stupid easy or learn c# for .net core and finally if you are retarded learn java for jsp or some shit
Almost forgot php if you are suicidal
