Scala Python or R, Lets start with Scala

My goal towards becoming a data journalist seems like a humungous mountain to climb. Yet, I am going to give in a little try everyday. I plan to transition from Data Engineering into Data Science.

So I took up this course in coursera

and starting to write up some scala.All the best to me!
