Hi, I was good in Maths, but my father forced me to choose Biology subjects. Hence, I haven''t touched it since 4 or 5 Years. Please, help me, how can I polish my skills again? Any good area for learning Math, which can help me in Programming quickly. Please ... help!!! I can survive anything ... even NUKES!!! The Lion King
I haven't read Mathematics for 3D Game Programming & Computer Graphics but most people who have on GameDev said it's worth reading.

MathWorld is an interesting site, though it's more useful as a reference than as teaching material.

EDIT : I've just found a similar topic here, you may find some useful things inside.

I would look at the trig and matrix algerba sections. In 3d games i use trig more than anything, followed by linear algebra (matrices). Of coruse to do those you need a good knolage of algebra.
