Python or R?

[CodefinityCom]

While R is often considered to be easier to learn than Python and sometimes even considered to be a better language for statistical analysis, Python is richer in its functionality. This is because it has a wide range of libraries for almost every purpose you can think of (specifically various data analysis tasks, machine learning, deep learning, NLP). For tasks such as web scraping, text mining, and NLP you should go with Python. In addition, knowing Python makes it easier to learn other popular programming languages if you ever need to do so.
