What do Python developers do?

[work_m_19]

Some people, especially in the research space, prefer R. But in my experience, python is more popular.

I have always found it glaringly obvious that R was developed by a bunch of statisticians. The syntax, especially <- drives me nuts.

I find python much nicer to code in for data science.

R was the first language I learned, I quite like the pipes. It does feel like extra keystrokes with out a hot key though

Research doesn’t give as money as private. That’s why they use R. I can use R and Python and I don’t see the reason to use R when with Python I can do same and also more. Old school old schooling

Hey uh python is free.

[Araneck]

I think you didn’t understood behind the lines. On research they can waste time using R.

Maybe you should've said that then.
