"In a nutshell, he says, Python is better for for data manipulation and repeated tasks, while R is good for ad hoc analysis and exploring datasets."
Python?
"From pulling the data, to running automated analyses over and over, to producing visualizations like maps and charts from the results, Python was the better choice."
R?
"R, by contrast, is good for statistics-heavy projects and one-time dives into a dataset. Take text analysis, where you want to deconstruct paragraphs into words or phrases and then identify patterns."
