Trying to decide on a major… up between a health career and computer science?

I am interested in doing computer programming, but I have been enrolled in Nutrition Science and would essentially have to completely restart my college career.

Any computer programmers out there who have any opinion? Was it worth it?

    I don’t know much about about healthcare, but I am a computer scientist, and I’ve been working on the field for a couple of years.
    Computer Science is not as challenging as many people think. As long as you have a curious mind, you should do fine in your classes, and you’ll have a rewarding career. I personally enjoy solving challenges every day.. Every program I design is like solving a puzzle.
    One piece of advice… Don’t expect your professors to teach you how to program in the classroom. That’s impossible. Programming is like throwing a baseball or swinging a tennis racquet. You can only learn through trial and error.
