At the high school and college level, the Olympiads for math and CS are pretty analogous. But there's really popular semi-formal coding contests which exist outside academia which don't really have a math equivalent.
I'd say math contests are more popular among high schoolers, and semi-formal coding contests more popular among college students.

They're also similar in how olympiads are different from the "real thing" (TM).
