Just as a point of interest: Why would you convert a R program into a Python program? I can't think of any benefit in terms of speed or reporting?

- huac 11y agoSpeed and scale (and reporting too, I guess) are very important considerations for data analysis.
- baldfat 11y agoBut I wouldn't see Python as being speedier or better at scale and certainly not reporting. What are your speed up and scale advantages in Python over R. (Seriously interested) Going R to Clojure or Julia seems like a gain but Python.
- phillipamann 11y agoSorry for delay. I think it's just better interoperability with many other systems. R has very hacked on interoperability in my opinion but I am not an expert.
