Best programming languages for Data Science

Welcome back! Data science is a massive field that’s growing everyday, if you’re a beginner to the data science field you may want to know the best / most popular programming languages for data science. To be honest, programming languages are one part of it, you’ll also need to understand mathematics, statistics, a bunch of different software and machine learning and the packages associated with machine learning, but learning some of these languages can help you greatly with your data science journey.

Python

Starting off, Python is by far one of the most popular programming languages right now, it’s used for tons of different things, one of these things is data science. One of my favorite things about Python in this current climate is the support of packages / documentation, let me explain. Everyone knows that becoming a data scientist you need to know programming, but in order to learn these languages you have to follow a bunch of tutorials and rely heavily on the support / community of the packages. With Python, there is a massive community behind this language with updated tutorials and packages constantly. In my opinion, you can probably land a really decent position…
