Would strongly prefer teaching R/Python classes in the future. Open languages, more generalizable, and more useful to those who don’t go into Psych. Great article! Thanks for sharing.

To be clear, the Ss were awesome and did their best to learn all they could despite the difficulties. I just wish I could have taught them in another language.

Yes! I was so lucky in many ways to be taught C in undergrad.
