Which is better for data analysis: R or Python?

Question

Is R still a better data analysis language than Python? Has anyone else used Python with Pandas, to a large extent, in data analysis projects?

Answer 1

When it comes to Data Analysis or any other Machine Learning related projects for that matter, Python is the best option. Yes it is better than R. The wide range of libraries provided by Python (which also includes Pandas, Matplotlib) makes the work a lot easier. Pandas can be used for large scale projects as well. So, there's no need to worry about going for Python, as this programming language is the third most popular language in 2019, according to TIOBE Index for October 2019

In order to get started with Python, here's a Python tutorial by Intellipaat you can refer.
