@lritter@mastodon.gamedev.place obviously I'm engaging in talking shit about programming "). That's from a game/3d programming pov. The keyword here is "symbolic", presumably everyone has at least a decent numeric calculator in their workfkow. But simple symbolic manipulation and analysis of expressions is basic to the programming process. Most of this happens mentally and isn't thought of in an algebraic sense. I wonder myself if I underutilize such tools in general programming processes that aren't "mathy".
