A Pirate’s Favorite Programming Language

O curioso e divertido ponto de vista de um programador sobre a linguagem R e outras linguages especializadas.
I’d like to understand more about the world of statistics and data science, so I’ve been learning the programming language R. It has wide applications in the sciences (social and natural). There’s an IDE, freely available, called R Studio, which features a very large number of relatively sensible defaults and makes it easy to load up libraries. This meant that I didn’t have to learn much to get started, and had all the software I needed installed and ready to go in a few minutes. There’s also a set of connected libraries called the tidyverse that are obviously a huge improvement on whatever was there before.
