R vs Python
Hi, I'm an incoming S&T intern who majored in economics and has done a lot of coursework in R , but only a little in python. I want to work on a macro desk, and was wondering if R will be sufficient and if R is used or if R is completely irrelevant and I need to focus on Python? Thanks

HF people have told me they use both. screening data to find metrics for you is why to use python
Normally, knowing one coding language is sufficient as most coding languages used for practical applications (python, c#, Matlab, R) are similar.
So if you're good and comfortable on R, just stick with it and develop that skillset. However, you might find yourself in a team that predominantly codes in some other language. Then it's really up to you and your commitment level to learning and getting up to speed with the programming language used in your team.
What would you say the most common applications of programming are that you have seen?
