    Hey, I’m an engineer and a nerd and I prefer R. It not only does statistics, it lets me show them so clearly a business major can understand the implications

      I’m a software engineer and data scientist.

      MATLAB is trash politically, monetarily, for writing APIs, for structuring your APIs and code, and for packaging your work.

      The only limitation R has is the structuring one.

      I prefer Python. And Rust.
