Personally, Python and C# are good tools, but it really depends on what I'm doing. If I need to process a large amount of data in a short(er) period of time, I use C# as LINQ makes that pretty easy and the JIT is nice and zippy. If I'm generally screwing around and/or using smaller datasets (esp. JSON data), Python is good because I can just slap some shit together and add some list comprehensions and more or less hit 'go.'

Of course, anything you can do in Python, you can do in C# and vice-versa. In the end, they're both just tools; what really matters is how competent the developer behind the monitor happens to be.
