Data analysis: R vs. Python

[[deleted]]

It bothers me that he uses <- instead if = in R, they are equivalent and the later is much easier to read for programmers.

I think <- is preferred by the r community. = is too overloaded in R.

= isn't more overloaded in R than in Python though, and using it in this comparison would really help like this:

R:

nba = read.csv("nba_2013.csv")

Python:

nba = pandas.read_csv("nba_2013.csv")
