What kind of language is R

I hate R, its syntax is not at all consistent, it feels totally random ensemble of garbage syntax with a pretty powerful compilation. I hate it. The only good thing about it is this `<-` . That's all.

Is this meant to be OOP or Functional? cause i can put period as i like to declare new variables this does not make sense.

​

I just want to do some bayesian regression.

compilation consistent datascience ensemble functional good kind language oop random syntax
