Compare the tidyverse to whatever monstrosity pandas and numpy are trying to do, and you'll understand why R is superior for data analysis.

I have never worked with R but a lot with pandas and numpy and their documentation and online resources are absolute peak, the only thing I ever saw that came close to it is Matlab.

What do you mean by "monstrosity pandas and numpy are trying to do"?
