I'll probably always dislike Python. I do like Nim, but for strictly data processing I'd take R over either in a heartbeat. R has too many libraries, its semantics are perfect for data processing, RStudio is too nice and while pure R is slow as shit, in practice it's fast because it's basically a scripting language for a bunch of C and Fortran bits that are doing the real work. If I were writing something from scratch that dealt with data, I would probably use Nim though. It's super easy to write something fast in and is more pleasant than pretty much any other compiled language.
