In my case, the CS class only covered the representation of floating point numbers (a sign bit, exponent bits, fraction bits, issues like bias etc) but not things like numerical approximation or integration methods. Those were in a separate class under the math department. And I think that's fair; after all those are really about scientific computing, not so much about computer science.
