... complicated? it's a pretty easy language in comparison to others, it's simple to use (although it can be quite terse)

For the untrained eye can look complicated because it had a pretty unorthodox syntaxes, like <- to variable assign, c() to create a vector, df$column... and other little R specific things that are not common on other languages.
