Three reasons (I know both languages well): (1) R is used much less in the data science industry, and (2) Python is a more universally useful language. If he learns it for data science then he can easily write utility scripts, build a back-end, etc. (3) the overlap between R and Python capabilities is so significant it would be a waste to start with R, I would only suggest picking it up if he needs some niche package that he can't get in python. |
