Thanks all of you for the useful input. It works for me. The reason I asked is that I was that we just presented how to use FEMhub (femhub.org), which is based on Sage (it doesn't contain R though) at our colloquium, and then I was in the computer lab and one professor was teaching statistics in R, explaining how to download/install it, and then they were using it as a desktop application, so I had first hand experience how people use R. And I am glad I use Python. The devil is in the details. So I will mention Sage to him together with some examples how to use R in it.
