There is nothing like "python is better than R" or "R is much better than python". The only fact you need to know is that both R and Python have their own advantages. Still, Python seems to perform better in data manipulation and repetitive tasks. Hence, it is the right choice if you plan to build a digital product based on machine learning. Moreover, if you need to develop a tool for ad-hoc analysis at an early stage of your project then go for R. The ultimate choice depends on which programming language you want to go.

Moreover, the programming language 'per se' is only a tool. All languages were designed to make some type of constructs more easy to build than others. And the knowledge and mastery of a programming language is more important and effective than the features of that language compared to others.

So just stick with the language you are comfortable with.

Python is better than R.

Advantages of using python are:

its fast as compared to R.

Lot of in built machine learning python packages are available.

The first super tool is MATLAB [ https://www.perlego.com/book/526984/matlab-for-machine-learning-pdf ], the second is Python [ https://aws.amazon.com/machine-learning/accelerate-amazon-sagemaker/?&trk=ps_a134p000003ys4RAAQ&trkCampaign=2020_howmlisdone_accelerate_sagemaker&sc_channel=ps&sc_campaign=2020_howmlisdone_accelerate_sagemaker_sm_smgen_nb_p__ad1&sc_outcome=AIML_Digital_Marketing&sc_publisher=Google&sc_category=machine%20learning&sc_segment=459238550105&sc_detail=machine%20learning%20using%20python&sc_matchtype=e&sc_country=ANZ&sc_geo=APAC&sc_content=SageMaker%20General_exact&sc_medium=PAC-AIML-P|PS-GO|Non-Brand|All|PA|Machine%20Learning|SageMaker|ANZ|EN|Text|xx|How-ML-is-Done&ef_id=Cj0KCQjwqrb7BRDlARIsACwGad7ai-dLBgSolwWChPiSc7UzGyV2GCZGYw-okyvPpr5Czqrr-oV48e8aAu0DEALw_wcB:G:s&s_kwcid=AL!4422!3!459238550105!e!!g!!machine%20learning%20using%20python!10941796733!107745846895 ] & the 3rd one is R indeed.

I think it depends on one's familiarity and proficiency with the two. There is nothing that can be done in Python and can't be done in R. Vice-Versa. For a beginner, I would recommend Python because it's easy to learn and has a lot of inbuild machine learning libraries.
