Having read plenty of python numerical code, I'm not sure "easy to parse and understand" is what exactly comes to mind.

- empthought 6y agoMost of the problem comes from Pandas which is of course R-inspired.
- disgruntledphd2 6y agoYup, it's a terrible shame that pandas started off as a base-R clone in Python. Now, the only time I write base-R like code is in Python, which is pretty weird. It's also strange as sklearn is beautiful, and in general python libraries are nicer than the equivalents in R, but pandas is a large, warty exception.
