What are the differences between Python and R?







In addition to the above similarities, there are also differences. It is important to be aware of these differences before choosing one of the two languages.
• R is much more difficult to learn if you have no programming knowledge yet. Python code is intuitive so that even as a layman in the field of programming, you quickly understand what is in a Python script.
• R is used by academics and within R&D departments, Python by developers / programmers
• Python is better with big data applications than R
• Python is a leader in machine learning and artificial intelligence
• The vast majority of data analysis can be done in Python with just a few packages (Numpy, Pandas, Scikit-learn, and Seaborn)
• Python integrates better in applications or websites
• R is really for statistical analysis, Python more widely applicable. This makes R especially suitable for very specific analytical activities for which specialist packages have been developed.
Python code is more robust and easier to maintain than R code.
• R has standard nice options for communicating the output of analyzes, in Python this is less. Python has made a big catch up here, so that differences have become smaller.
