Post Body

I've done calculus/vectors 101 in university, but beyond that nothing else. I've decided to begin learning c , and have heard rumors that you need to be REALLY good with complex mathematics to do anything worthwhile. My end goal is to be proficient enough with cpp to edit/modify game engines like Cryengine/UDK enough to produce small indie level games. Do I need to start thinking about taking extra math classes at university? What kind of mathematical concepts would I see in this kind of programming?

Cheers
