Though I did repent for having taken it up and having lost out two valuable years of computer science while at school after I started learning computer science courses at college which were the subjects that interested me the most due to its emphasis on the power of logic which makes it possible to even mimic nature and sheer beauty of the subject in terms of its various algorithms, how they can make possible even seemingly impossible tasks-using only mathematics and logic-the subjects that I have the greatest command over, I somehow do feel that this sense of having lost out has strengthened my determination to master this beautiful subject and also I do know that the best knowledge comes when you do something with interest and intent rather than with ambition in the...
