Err... to R! - Overview
The house that code built.
When it comes to the analysis of data, there has never been a “correct” tool. Social Scientists tend to prefer products like Matlab, SPSS, SAS etc, Computer Scientists tend to prefer Python, and Statisticians tend to prefer R. All of these tools are suitable to perform data analysis, and all have their positives and negatives. R isn’t perfect, the load in times for data are frustrating at times and the learning curve is steep; however it is a powerful and flexible tool for data analysis.
