Wes McKinney is a good guy, and Pandas is very useful. The title of this article is grandiose though.


Exacltly. I thought this was an article about John Chambers, Ross Ihaka, and Robert Gentleman.

Funny, but you have to admit pandas is the lingua franca of data science now.

A couple of years ago the whole team was using only R. Now some guys use it here and there a couple of days a month.


Not necessarily in my world. My theory...

Programmers grok pandas Statisticians grok R


That matches my observations very well.


Thanks, we've updated the headline.
