Why?

I suppose one of the questions I had was are you doing this to prove a point? That a woman can code? Or am I doing this because I might genuinely enjoy coding.

You would necessarily be able to tell from my outside that there would be apart of me attracted to logic.

Both above motivations are probably valid. Why not learnt to code to prove that women are just as capable?

But similarly, it you want a career in code, perhaps actually enjoying it would be a good place to start also.

Could I see myself doing this day in day out? A good question, but for now I am just going to enjoy the journey and see where I end up.

In time I can sit back and look at the grand scheme of my life and decide if this is what I really want or what I need. I don't know if there is such a thing as a true calling, but you never know.

I think there is a lot of discussion about very young children learning to code, and they will be very superior by the time they get to adulthood. But I think starting later in life shouldn't hold anyone back. I met children whilst teaching who are going to go far beyond me in terms of everything, but you might as well be the best version of yourself. And that is all you can expect in life.
