title: Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs, what level of maths ability is required?
body: <p>I regrettably haven't studied mathematics since I was 16 (GCSE level), I'm now a 27 year old C# developer.
  Would it be a fruitless exercise trying to work through <em><a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Structure_and_Interpretation_of_Computer_Programs" rel="nofollow noreferrer">Structure and Interpretation of Computer Programs</a></em> (SICP)?</p>
  
  <p>What kind of mathematics standard is expected of the reader?</p>
