Comparison of Python and R vocabularies

I was searching for language comparisons of R and Python and come across a comparison of vocabularies for R and JuliaLang. This is similar to what I was looking except for a different language.

Comparing R and JuliaLang vocabularies

Does anyone know if there is a similar comparison for R and Python? In this cheat-sheat like format.

Thanks.

I found this resource. There are a lot of gaps in it though.

Python is a general-purpose language that is used for the deployment and development of various projects. Python has all the tools required to bring a project into the production environment. R is a statistical language used for the analysis and visual representation of data.

Is R language better than Python?

If you're passionate about the statistical calculation and data visualization portions of data analysis, R could be a good fit for you. If, on the other hand, you're interested in becoming a data scientist and working with big data, artificial intelligence, and deep learning algorithms, Python would be the better fit.

Is R or Python better for text analysis?

Python would be the best option because it has Pandas library that provides easy to use data structures and high-performance data analysis tools. R is more suitable for machine learning than just text analysis. Python performs faster for all types of text analytics.
