Am i too old to become good at coding/programming?

[nikrb]

I have seen posts here from 30 and 40+ year olds asking the same question … and I am 54 myself, so not too old go for it!

Of course I can only find one link now.

I am 40 years old. Is it too late to start a career in software development?

Hi, ) I come from a different background (music) and would like to switch to software development (for many reasons - the main ones being money and love of ocmputers. I have been using computers (windows, linux) for most of my life in one way or another. I am currently 40 years old. Is it too late for me to start a career in software development? (I’m looking at all the 20 somethings and feel a bit out of place and not competitive enough). Any feedback would be appreciated. Thanks, Jay …
