I studied something completely unrelated with computer science. I started with programming and then with general computer science and now I know a lot of things and I’m quite probably going to land a job in IT field next year. It’s never late to learn something new.
Coding is hard though, especially when you go past the basic tutorial stuff (Hello World, if statements, for/while loops, libraries, etc.) Actual computer science and understanding all the technical and mathematical aspects of computing is orders of magnitude harder than writing some C# or Javascript code.
Last time I actually tried to make an effort to learn how to code was back in the days when /r/CarlHProgramming was still active, long before Carl Herold was arrested on heinous child sex crimes.
It’s one of those times where I wish I learned programming/computer science and not History and accountancy.
