Which is the one main reason why PHP is still around.
If you are starting a new language or a new project, it is better to have examples and guides available.
I am preferring python to "R" because it gives me better search results.
R and Python are probably the two with the most support/community materials around them - lots of tutorials, libraries, guides etc.
