Why R is so famous
According to the TIOBE programming community index, which ranks the popularity of all programming languages, R is one of the hottest programming languages of 2018. Why R? Well, R isn’t the easiest language to learn, but there are lots of reasons that speak in its favor. Some say data visualization is better in R than in Python, and this has been a contentious topic for quite some time.
