Asking this here does not add up.  If you asked in the math section, it might be better.  Oh, and if you use a computer or phone at all: you use math.

can you please explain @e.mccormock how is maths used with computers. I use computer to only chat with my friends

All digital devices operate 100% off of binary math.  You are not typing letters in.  You are typing in formulas that result in the display of something we call a letter.  So you are doing tons of math and not knowing it.

I think maths is handled by computer. you just type normally. All unicode and binary things you don't have to think for. So effectively you can use computers without knowing any maths

Just because you are uing math does not mean you have to know it.  When you use a formula for the surface area of a sphrere, you are using a chaild of calculus.  That is how that formula is generated.  But you don't need to know the calculus to use the formula.  Just like when you use a computer you use binary math without knowing it.
