When you study CompSci (depending on where IG) you tend to see them that way when trying to mathematically prove something about an algorithm. It's only really a good way of thinking if you're into coding, but I don't think a teacher for a non-coding related algebra class should show this, it can be really confusing for some people.
I liked this so much I tried to find more. A few seconds googling turned up a lot, but this is the first hit: https://amitness.com/2019/08/math-for-programmers/
Hi, you can look into "discrete mathematics" if you're interested in the overall subject of math for programmers, it was one of my hardest class but highly intesting!
I was "good at math" in school and all through uni. Discrete mathematics crushed me.
