The handle looks like that of a screwdriver. It looks like they removed the metal shaft and put in its place the bottle opener end.

...the impossible takes slightly longer.

what are the programming languages best linked with data analysis?
|
|
|
|
|

I don't care for Python, but I have to admit you're right about it - it's what's for dinner when it comes to data analysis. So eat your vegetables.

Can it detect when a text value is parseable as a .net DateTime or SID? Or as an SQL datatype? And compare them as such?

Probably. I don't know. I don't use Python

You can probably find a library that does that for you.
(The Python version of "There is an app for that". The answer is the same, regardless of question.)

Not when one has an employer who won't allow downloading packages of any kind. Everything has to be vetted by teams which have no clue before it can be used. By which time it's obsolete of course.

That could significantly reduce the viability of some popular languages that thrive on the gazillion of freely available libraries.

Although I hate python because of it's lazy syntax (white space as part of language), I love it because of lybraries like numpy which allows you easily apply 'array'- operations over matrices and vectors

I always wish that questions like this was expanded with something like "and which specific qualities of the language makes it particularly well suited for my problem area?"
Or, turned around: "Which specific language qualities are essential to solve problems in [data analysis], and which languages offer these qualities?"
Even if the question is not phrased that way, I always wish that those who provide answers would pretend that it was, and answer accordingly.

(Sounds like a leading question to me.)
Don't get me started...
I thought R was the language of choice for that. But really, I don't think any particular language should be. I use C# to do that.
Any off-the-shelf analysis platform can do only so much and get you so far. Then you will always need to go deeper depending on what you find on the surface. For that, you'll need a proper general-purpose programming language; not a scripting language (Python, ptui) and not some analysis-specific platform.

Python is first, R second, according to this site. Python, due to its increased versatility over other languages.
I don't see C# anywhere.
I love C# and primarily use it for most of my work, but just because I love a specific tool, does not mean it is the tool for everything (i.e. hammer, saw, screwdriver, etc.).
I'm not a data scientist or analyst, so I Google these things, because I have no clue.

Shouldn't that be "Go Forth and multiply"?
