Programming Languages, R Vs Python: What's the Difference?
R and Python are both open-source programming languages with a large community. R is mainly used for statistical analysis while Python provides a more general approach to data science. R and Python are state of the art in terms of programming language oriented towards data science. As you decide which online courses you will complete as part of the FDP Charter requirements inquire at your current place of employment or future desired place of employment which system they use.
