The basis of computer science is maths.Inequalities and logic can be useful.

The most common math that I am aware of in computer programming is number theory and discrete math (a math class that works with only whole integers)

With that being said, if you do any programming for games and such you will probably need a background in physics, and any math that goes with that.

While you are in college you will take your math classes side by side with your programming classes. So it is unlikely that math will hold you behind, but it never hurts to get a head start!

I think you need to finish the intermediate course, and then you will have to remember the different method of math and try to solve the various kind of math problem. you don’t need to take higher label of math course.

At the school I attend, Computer Science majors are required to take the following Math courses:
Calculus I
Calculus II
Discrete Math
Differential Equations
Probability and Statistics

Calculus I is normally taken in the first semester of the freshmen year, so you probably won’t be expected to have taken Calculus already (although it would be good to take it in highschool if you can!), but you should take at least everything up to Pre-Calc.
