My view is that math is man made. It's a mash of notation for various ideas, more or less unambiguous, more or less rigorous. Some are more well designed than others. It's closer to natural language than programming languages.

Not every programming language has a concept of time. Sometimes that's a good thing, it depends on what you're used to. Math arguably has less mutable state than most typical programing languages.
