As a CS grad who has already wasted two years of life/career working in a non CS-intensive although CS-related field as he failed to understand the thin blur difference between IT and CS, and as someone who has ALMOST GIVEN UP on programming (reading/writing/thinking code)
.....
How much of CS depends on math and if I wanted to start now,where would be a good place(or book) to begin in computational math/Algorithms?

not a very intelligent post on your part, as you do not state your current math skill level or your completed math courses
you call yourself a cs grad but then you ask how much of cs depends on math
you should be able to answer your own question
at most schools you would take calc 1-2, linear algebra, discrete math - this is the minimum
normally you would also take any calc based prob/stats course
if you have taken all this then any relevant math is covered in the cs courses
you can start with patrickjmt for discrete and this

but, I do have the time ahead of me to change,
>Excellent links by the way,although finished the third book(DAA) in college
you sound like a massive faggot
you will still be a basement dweller it guy because you cannot express yourself in a clear manner

are you sure you're a CS grad? you sound like a CS freshman
look for the ACM ICPC chapter on your uni and tell them you want to learn algorithms
