Difficult Decision: MS Operations Research or Software Development?

[QUOTE="homeylova223, post: 6430985, member: 344187"] I started a degree in MS operations research but now am having second thoughts. I took a class in statistics and optimization using linear algebra. But what I enjoy most is programming in python.I am also teaching myself c++. People say industrial engineer is more about analyzing data while software engineer is more about building a product. I am not sure which one to proceed on. I am enjoying coding challenges on website like leetcode way more than probability and statistics. So does that mean my path is more toward software development. I like small coding challenges with list and small functions but I never developed software before... And industrial engineer is like the applied version of operations research where you use simplex algorithm and other technique to model shipping and things like that. [/QUOTE]
