Brushing up mathematics for computational design

fazal1988

Any suggestions on what kind of mathematics essentially one should learn in order to practice computational design?

I feel as architects, majority of us ignore mathematics in academics. Now if we look at formulas in revit or grasshopper or even python, they intimidate us and we tend skip them. Even the curriculum is designed that way that math is just taught only in our first year, rest of the years focused only on design and theory parts. Please recommend what topics I've to learn to quickly brush up mathematics.

Is this a real question?

This question does not make much sense. Are you referring to computational design or architecture?

You need all the maths. Get cracking!

Computational design is an oxymoron.

Graph theory is big in automation. I see a lot of computational folks diving deep into that field of mathematics.
