I've only been coding for about six years on and off. I received my degree in Mathematics, but I am back in the university studying Computer Science which is probably what I should have studied in the first place! Though I don't regret studying higher Math. It was a great experience.

Not sure if I will complete the degree though as it all depends on funds of course. I did take a lot of CS electives while I took Math and had a minor which was one of the main reasons I decided to go back to school.

Anyway, I hope to break into the software industry soon where ever in the US it takes me. I've done a few medium-sized projects with C, C++ and Java. Currently I'm working on developing an IRC client since it covers a lot of basic programming concepts such as GUI, networking, etc.

The courses at the university are pretty basic so far so I find the self-projects teach me quite a bit more. I'm also trying my hand at modding some of the Civilization IV code, and that is a more daunting task due to the sheer size of the code base plus being unfamiliar with it.

Thanks for reading!

No - you made the right choice (though I am a little biased).

Mathematics teaches gives you an incredibly solid framework of logical thinking, problem solving, and basic skills applicable to anything you do in Computer Science. It's timeless. Computer Science, while having a large foundation, is very, very changeable. My personal philosophy is you learn the solid foundations in University, then you learn (and keep learning) the evolving and changing stuff in the field.
