Am I too late to learn code?

(sorry if my english not perfect)I'm a 15 years old boy and I just started to learn python. And I see lot of people say that they started coding when they were 11-12 years old. I would like to be a programmer one day. Am I late to learn code? Could I learn code when I was younger?

No, It's never late. It's the perfect time to learn and prove them wrong. People will always throw stones in your path, it's upto you if you make a wall between your success or a bridge to your destination. Be Motivated, Happy Coding.

There are people 50+ years old who have changed their careers to coding.

You're not late. I started coding when I was 20. As long as you dedicate your time and focus to learning how to solve problems (coding is all about solving problems) and researching the programming language or tools you're working with, you'll grow as a developer :).

It's never too late . I even see some guys start learning and applying programming at the age of 18 years and it is not related to their success or some other stuff. You are at the perfect point to start it. And the main thing which will distinguish you from others is your creativity . That's all.
