I didn't know this. Will look into it, thanks!

edit: looked up "call R from Julia", it looks like there's a n "RJulia" library for this. Assuming there's a Python equivalent? How does this compare to, say, using RPy2 in Python (which is nice but kind of annoying)?

I think RJulia goes the other way; calling Julia from R.

You want RCall.jl and PyCall.jl. Both allow you to directly work with and manipulate native objects. RCall even allows you to bring up an R REPL.
