What are some limitations of R and how have you worked around them in your past projects?
- Difficulty in handling large datasets
- Fewer resources for learning
- Limited performance speed
- Not a general-purpose language
One of the well-known limitations of R is its difficulty in handling large datasets due to its in-memory limitations. However, this can be worked around using certain packages designed for large datasets (such as 'data.table' and 'ff'), optimizing the code, or using R in combination with a database system that can handle larger datasets, like SQL.
