    Probably barking up the wrong tree here, but boy do I hate R. The documentation is the worst, combined with the poor r studio experience. Vscode makes notebooks a bit better but lost a lot of functionality as far as I could tell.

    Laughed so hard when I this course once they told us to do ML in R with Keras … By calling the python API.

    I like and despise R… WHY DO I HAVE TO COPY THE TEXT FROM MY CONSOLE INTO A SCRIPT TO ACTUALLY SAVE IT AS AN .R FILE???

      Because it’s a console, not an IDE. But I see your frustration and does seem ridiculous

    I considered looking at R once. As a data scientist and an experienced Python user, maybe I’ll see something useful. Then I learned that R uses <- for variable assignment and = for equality evaluation, and I stopped learning because I would make that mistake if I learned to switch back and forth for the rest of my life.
