Programming Languages Ranking: Consider learning languages that consistently rank high, as they often have robust ecosystems, job opportunities, an...
As you can see, R tanks higher than the median for github projects and quite a lot higher for stackoverflow questions. So R is doing quite well amongst programming languages in general. As a specialized statistics language, a more relevant comparison may come from looking at tags at the stat...
