I have the opposite question. I have been programming in R since I was 19. I know no other programming languages. Hence my question: What's the advantage of Python if you already know R? I've heard they have similarities. Is there anything Python does better than R in terms of statistical analysis, charting, etc.? |

AFAIK in statistical modelling Python is better only in neural networks, so if you do not need to do fancy things with images, text, etc. you do not need Python. R is still the king.
In terms of charting and dashboards, I would say that if you work high level R and Python are both pleasant. R has ggplot, but Python has Plotly Express. R has Shiny, but Python has Dash and Streamlit. You can do great with both.
