## Context I often get asked by newer data science folks whether they should focus on learning R or Python. Both languages have their upsides and drawbacks. When you could use either, I think an important factor in individual preference is how much you like specialized tools. (R is really focused on statistics and visualization, while Python is more general.) I was wondering if this extended to another area where you have a the opportunity to choose use specialized tools: cooking. ## Content This dataset contains answers to a two-question poll filled out by 185 people. The questions in the poll were: Do you prefer Python or R? * Python * R How do you feel about specialized kitchen gadgets (e.g. veggie peelers, egg slicers, specialized knives)? * Hate 'em * Love 'em ## Acknowledgements: This dataset is released into the public domain. Thank you to all the participants who filled it out! ## Inspiration: What’s the relationship between the preference for R or Python and whether or not someone liked kitchen gadgets?
