Re:Homogenization of scientific computing – Python is eating... by eeshanC on Friday January 10, 2014 @02:12AM (#7035484)
I'd like to jump in with a little R here- it not all that difficult in "that" either!

open(con <- file('text.txt'))

text = readLines(con, n= -1L) # n is number of lines to read, -1L means read all of it

words = strsplit(text,split = " ")

counts = table(unlist(words))

I put this in because the good thing about R is that it provides functions for many such mathematical operations. And along with this, I'll say something any self-respecting pythoner will know- Less is better than more.
