I thought that there was a PR looking at it?

Another reference that I like a lot for people who already know a
programming language and are trying to learn Python is "Python Essential
Reference" by David Beazley. It gives a good understanding of how Python
works, though it does not talk about numerical computing libraries.

Hi M,
I think what you describe can be summarized as the difference of a domain
specific language (r) and a general purpose language (Python). Most of what you
describe is related to namespaces - "one honking great" feature of python.
Namespaces are less needed in r because r is domain s
Hi, along with all the great tips you received, perhaps you may find this
useful:

I know is not on-topic with your question, but I found it very useful when I
start to use python (coming from R)
So I thought it was worth to post it here.
Thank you all for the love!
Sean,
I think your recommendation is perfect! It covers everything, very concise,
to the point.
Sebastian,
I will certainly invest time into that course when I have time.
Nelle,
I agree! And from what I read, thee head(), tail(), and data.frame() in

Hello,
The concepts behind R and python are entirely different. Python is
meant to be as explicit as possible, and uses the concepts of
namespace which R doesn't.
While it can seem that python code is more verbose, it is very clear
when reading python code which functions come from which module an
Hi, C W,
yeah I'd say that Python is a programming language with lots of packages for
scientific computing, whereas R is more of a toolbox for stats. Thus, Python
may be a bit weird at first for people who come from the R/stats field and are
new to programming. Not sure if it is necessary to le

Hi Sebastian,
I looked through your book. I think it is great if you already know Python,
and looking to learn machine learning.
For me, I have some sense of machine learning, but none of Python.
Unlike R, which is specifically for statistics analysis. Python is broad!
Maybe some expert here wi

Dear Scikit-learn,
What are some good ways and resources to learn Python for data analysis?
I am extremely frustrated using this thing. Everything comes after a dot!
Why would you type the sam thing at the beginning of every line. It's not
efficient.
code 1:
y_sin = np.sin(x)
y_cos = np.cos(x)
I misspoke. I didn't mean that there is a reason not to support it, just
that there are no current plans to support it and that we would welcome a
willing contributor to get it rolling.
