Though is familiar with MATLAB and Python, but I am a big fun of R programming language. I enjoy creating code to streamline my analytical framework . Coding is nothing more than telling a computer what to do in a language the computer understands.

He enjoy the modern syntax in R brought by tidyverse and magritr that made easier doing data science in R.
