In comparison, Python sometimes requires a bit more work up-front (e.g. with visualization in matplotlib) but once you have mastered it, you can apply the same knowledge to so many other problems and you don't need to keep learning 'yet another package'.The lack of standardization in R, such as how package authors define the mechanics of their S3 classes (in comparison to Python, which already gives you a well defined structure to work with), means that the inconsistency can become fatiguing over time.","When you have problems in R, where do you go for help?":"General search websites such as Google and Yahoo, community.rstudio.com","How do you discover new packages or packages that are unfamiliar to you?":"General search websites such as Google and Yahoo, community.rstudio.com, Email lists such as r-help, r-packages, or r-pkg-devel, Social media such as blogs, R-bloggers, Twitter, Slack, or GitHub contacts","How do you share the results that you create in R?

":"The John Hopkins Data Science Specialization on Coursera (R Peng & co) wasn't very pedagogical. As my colleague put it: They teach us about half the alphabet, then they ask us to read but fail to mention that there's the entire rest of the alphabet we need to find out about ourselves. That is, way too many (most) of the tasks given required the student to find out for themselves if they could solve the task with the material in the lectures or if you were supposed to find more tools, packages, statistical theory etc on your own. Starting from scratch, with all problems you can encounter with packages and different versions etc, it isn't very nice to throw very dirty data at beginners and then not even telling them that they should be googling for additional information. Would not recommend this specialization to anyone. I did complete it though, it took med about a year and a half. After maybe five or six months I felt that I could make use of R in my work. Unfortunately my less technical colleague didn't make it past the first four courses.
