Hello World!
Today marks my transition from R to Python.
I have been trying to master R for almost a year and though I started making progress I felt that there was something intrinsically wrong with the language. Having used R/ggplot helped me get insights on a number of data sets that I was working on. The visualization capabilities seemed promising.
The cons however:
- Formatting is "dirty" - you have to exert extra effort in organizing blocks of codes
- Various ways to write the same code - slows down mastery
- Less effective in automating data processing and updates
Python on the other hand was love at first sight. About time somebody removed the curly braces and semicolons in the code. The coding structure is well thought out and logical.
Here's to more nights with the Py!
