If you don't know if you can program stats stuff with it, you shouldn't be asking. That's what stats packages are for.
It'll scrape data for you fine, though.

yeah it's pretty good

you can write to a csv file, scrape data, what more do you need?

Finance fag here. Pretty much R and any scripting language to use that data is required for Finance graduates these days if they want a good analyst position. Python is the most popular, but Lua is slowly popping up. I personally use Lua.

I thought all statisticians and economists used R these days. It's free and has built-in visualization, and it can even handle large datasets.
