Data Analysis Tools Survey Results
I’ve always wondered what tools are used by data scientists to dig useful information out of the big data and create beauty out of it.
Szilard Pafka[1] has run an survey about the tools used by data scientist and he presents an overview of the results in the video embedded below.
As I’ve learned over time, the R language is the preferred data analysis tool and the survey confirms it. But what surprised me was to see Excel coming in the second place. Python and Unix shell tools are coming after SAS to complete the top five tools.
