It&#x27;s true, however NumPy, Pandas, and SciPy are external libraries. I think it&#x27;s a slight disadvantage. In R all these fancy data structures are built into the language and are used everywhere in a natural way. Whereas Numpy feels a little bit like an appendage or like a language inside a language. That said I don&#x27;t dislike Python&#x2F;Numpy and I think it definitely has its uses.
