Is Computer Science(Quant stuff ,algos ) used in Fundamental Investing??

I am a novice (if this is a silly question) Pls can someone tell me that are computer systems,algo ,quant stuff done in Fundamental shops or is it more like Lynch or Buffet reading annual reports doing manual stuff and not relying on Computers to assist . I am starting to invest using Fundamental strategies but am not able to know how a computer program can help me or I should learn to code .

Yes, you can and prob will for some models use fundamental information into your models. Like making a model where the bot buys and sells stocks with a higher alpha than x etc. Check out tradingview you can do this yourself there with the pine editor or stockscreener.
