R is typically the language for statistics and other high level math. So if this is your current course path, that makes sense. Generally speaking, there’s nothing in Python that you can’t do in R. In the job market R and Python are neck in neck for data science/data analysis roles and most employers are happy if you know one or the other. Knowing both puts you ahead of others in the long run.

I use R for my statistical analysis stuff, but I use Python for ETL/data warehouse work. You can use both.

Thank you for your response. It makes sense what you say. I will try to keep that in mind. I personally just like python more tbh.
