One of my CS teachers is very bold on saying that understanding program calculation can increase the quality of code, though he fails completely to help his students apply the knowledge he "preaches".
Anyway is a very intelligent guy(genius like), and is making a book on the subject (still incomplete). Here's the link if you're interested: http://wiki.di.uminho.pt/twiki/pub/Education/CP0809/Material...
My teacher does bring up interesting points, such as the lack of programming quality these days, and the lack of precision in what should be very precise and defined, namely "software engineering".
