R vs Python, which one is better for the future
By: Codeavail
R vs Python • If you are into Data Science, the two programming languages that might immediately come to mind are R and Python. • However, instead of considering them as two options, more often than not, we end up comparing the two. • R and Python, are excellent tools in their own right but are very often conceived as rivals. • If you type R vs Python, in your Google search bar, you instantly get a plethora of resources on topic which talks about the supremacy of one over the other.
WHY NOT USE BOTH?
• There are people in the data science community who are using both Python and R, but their percentage is small. • On the other hand, there are a lot of people who are committed to only one programming language nut wished they had access to some of the capabilities of their adversary.
R • Object-oriented language
Vs
Python • Consists of packages for almost any statistical
• General purpose
application one can think of. CRAN currently
• Has a lot of extensions and
hosts more than 10k packages.
• incredible community support • Simple and easy to understand and learn. • Packages like pandas, numpy and sci-kit-learn, make Python an excellent choice for machine learning activities. • However, Python doesn’t have specialized packages for statistical computing, unlike R.
• It comes equipped with excellent visualization libraries like ggplot2. • Capable of standalone analyses. • Performance wise R is not the fastest language and can be a memory glutton sometimes when dealing with large datasets.
CONCLUSION: • Both R programming language and Python programming language are quite robust languages and either one of them is actually sufficient to carry out the data analysis task. • However, there are definitely some high and low points for both of them and if we could utilize the strengths of both, we could end up doing a much better job. • Either way, having knowledge of both will make us more flexible thereby increasing our chances of being able to work in multiple environments. • If you need any programming assignment help related to R and Python, you can hire codeavail professional programming experts at an affordable price.
