For Engineers, Python is a far much better option as it gives you so much of capabilities. Python is not made for Data Science, but it’ is used in end to end software development. R was made only for Data analysis and favorites for Statistics guys and non-programmer. Every MBA colleges teach R, not Python. But why? For the exact reason, I just told you.

If you are an engineer, learn Python. Else learn R.

For Data Analysis/Visualization, R has some great packages like GGPLOT, etc. Python is not up to that level.

Also, people find R easy as it’s made for non-programmers. Advanced techniques like Deep learning/ NLP is mostly in Python. R is good up-to machine learning but not extends too much-advanced areas.
