You have learned to make calculators and little tools, but you would really like to utilize some of those calculator functions to find something like the standard deviation of a large group of numbers. Further, you want anyone to be able to use their own number AND you want them to be able to use numbers from a massive (say 50,000+ numbers) set of data. Now let's imagine that this set of data can be pulled from an Excel spreadsheet provided by the user. Lastly, we want this data to be visually represented in one of three different graph styles that the user can choose.

Now you have a (data-science-oriented) project that you don't know how to solve. Go learn how to make it. That could be via YouTube, a book, a MOOC, or formal education. Whatever floats your boat.

The best thing you can do is find something that YOU are interested in, problem that YOU need to solve, or a way to make YOUR life better. Then, go for it! Maybe you need to a program that automatically searches Quora for new posts that mention a new language you are interested in and alerts you via text. Maybe you want to write some code for Raspberry Pi or Arduino. Or maybe games are your thing and you want to do a remake ofAgar.iowhere the dots are squares and the colors are all inverted.

The world is yours. Manipulate it carefully. Care for those in your midst. And have as much fun as possible!

Thanks,

Its good decision because unless you know adavnce level programming its difficult to adjust to new age technology and framework which are highly correlated and dependent in new programming languages. 

However you can choose to make career in NOn IT field of your choice and take up online certification in those areas from platforms like Coursera and Edx.
