Part III. Bilingualism II: The Modern Context

In this part you’ll get your hands dirty and get a tour of applications of both languages in a modern context, in terms of the open source ecosystem and useful workflows.

These are the two dimensions we need to cover to get a coherent view. By going through both, you will obtain a clear picture when and where to use which language, open source package, and workflow.

Chapter 4

In this chapter, we’ll go through how the variety of different data formats (i.e., image or text) are processed by different packages and which are the best ones.

Chapter 5

This chapter covers the most effective modern workflows (i.e., machine learning and visualization) for productive work for both R and Python.
