It is not unusual for students (and professors) to gravitate towards the discrete or the continuous. We wish to point out, that the discrete and the continuous are so closely related, that it is worthwhile to be comfortable with both. Up until fairly recently, much of computer science was often associated with discrete mathematics, while computational science and engineering was associated with physical systems, hence continuous mathematics.

$(blue("That is blurring these days:")) The popularity of machine learning has brought continuous optimization ideas such as gradient descent into the world of computer science and the impact of the physical world on us all (e.g. climate change, pandemics) is motivating applications in computer science. The newfound popularity of Data science and statistics is also mixing the discrete with the continuous.
