Python is used in Data Science by the majority of the data scientists because python is easy to learn and has a lot more features than statistical modeling like packaging your projects for distribution, developing command-line interfaces, modeling your data structures, etc. Python also has a large active community on sites like stack overflow, kaggle, etc. Deploying the models is easy using python. Hence, I would suggest to learn Python for Data Science.
