&gt; R is certainly a unique language<p>I&#x27;d say R is a _terrible_ language. Its types are just really different from every major programming language, and it&#x27;s horrible for an experienced programmer to use.<p>I totally agree that R has fantastic libraries, but I&#x27;d like to see people focus on improving libraries for Python rather than sticking with R, which as a language is less well-designed than Python.<p>[I use R for most of my stats, I also use Matlab and Python]
