Tableau Public

Another option is to use Tableau Public. Tableau is often marketed as a tool for building dashboards and fancy visualisations, but it's also really useful for exploring a dataset in a quick, visual way. It has a bit of a learning curve too, but not as high as R/Python simply because it's drag-and-drop rather than coding. The ceiling for the kind of analysis you can do in Tableau alone is lower, however.

NumPy

If you're going to use Python for data analysis, you'll probably want to learn a package like pandas or NumPy on top of vanilla Python, so you're not necessarily saving yourself much time or effort compared to learning Python and R separately.
