Hardly. Only the ones that aren't interested. I don't recall any
math students having problems with analysis of algorithms, 
compiler design, theory of computation, logic or graph theory.
And most don't have problems with the concurrency puzzles that
constitute a significant fragment of operating systems courses.
Where did you get this idea from?
