There are nuances that to me make R data frames, especially with Magrittr, simpler to work with over Pandas. Pandas indexing always seems to get in the way.

I have been using Python a lot longer than R, but the Pandas syntax is taking longer to internalize.

Maybe it's just me?




No. Pandas is a powerful tool, but a poor api / user interface.


Pandas grouping and slicing is, imo, significantly worse than R. And I so despise those multiindexes.


For those R users who aren't quite enjoying Pandas so much, I enjoyed the following blog post: https://stmorse.github.io/journal/tidyverse-style-pandas.htm...
