The actions of doing Mathematics and 99% of Programming have very little in common. Math is not required to be a great programmer. I've taken several college level courses in math, including but not limited to Calculus I,II,III elements of linear algebra, and several others.

I've been a software engineer for over 10 years and only rarely needed to use anything more than basic mathematics. There are some exceptions where mathematics is needed: like graphics and other areas. But 99% of the programming and software engineering doesn't require Math. It requires logical thinking, algorithms, OOP, functions, decomposing problems, etc.
