R or Python?

In the past month, I have already trying R. And found that R is indeed intuitive, and way faster than Python. Or it is happen because I haven’t run complex script? Not sure.

R Studio, also has Help window. When we run ? script in R, we can see how is the command used in that window. If I’m going to serious about statistics, I think it’s better to learn R than Python.

Python, on the other hand, not only come with script, but also the visualization (with Jupyter) all in one page. That makes it more readable in github or other repository.

And I’m more familiar with Python environment, because that’s my first language in programming. Perhaps, time will tell which tools will I use most.
