Python Vs R in 2022!

Welcome back! R and Python are very popular programming languages for Data Science, so let’s break down which language you should go and learn! First off, let’s break down some of the advantages of why R maybe the better language than Python!

Arguably better graphs / outputs

R has a ton of functionality within it, and one of the best things about R are the graphs / visuals you can create with this language! First off, Python has a lot of functionality with outputs, but R does some crazy outputs for sure:

Great for statistical analysis

Since R is a statistical programming language, any type of statistical computations your going to create will end up being more efficient using R. In my experience, data processing maybe overall better using R, but if your doing a lot of Machine Learning tasks, Python maybe better. But ultimately, the packages that R has (dplyr, tidyverse, etc.) maybe better than Python’s offering (Pandas).
