- For my capstone project my team and I worked on a project called Python vs R for data analytics. We began the project with very little knowledge in ether language but became proficient in each Python and R by the end of the semester. Our project began by defining three use cases to test each language against one another. The first use case we demonstrated was using a data set from the NFL draft to do linear regression to determine what players NFL teams should draft. Next we scraped twitter to perform sentiment analysis on tweets to be able to see how the public is reacting to current events on social media. Lastly we used the two languages to do object and land mark detection on photographs. Overall the project was incredibly interesting because we learned two new languages and three very different capabilities of each language.
