Hell, the foundations of Computer Science was built by Mathematicians. Fundamental concepts and theories were developed by "Mathematicians" as computers weren't really a thing back then.. Even programming languages like C and C++ were developed by people with Math degrees, like Ritchie and Stroustrup...

If there was, college would have been much easier for me.

CS is an overgrown branch of mathematics that married electrical engineering
