Data Analyst question career

To become a Data Analyst I see on LinkedIn that they required SQL, Python, R. plus some visualization tools.
Can I became a Data Analyst using SQL? or Do I need to learn Python?

SQL is a language for access a database.
Python and R are programming languages.

I am not a data analyst but assume you need both SQL and Python.
Like in web development you need Javascript or PHP for the main programme but SQL or other database language for accessing a database.

thank you so much friend, have a great day

Hey! I know it’s been a very long time but i want to say, SQL is a great start for data analysis, but learning Python can definitely expand your opportunities. It’s used for more advanced analysis and machine-learning tasks. So, while SQL is essential, adding Python to your skill set can open up more doors in the field.By the way, are there any surgical technicians? I checked the Benefits and drawbacks of Online Surgical Technician Training Programs, and I really want to become one. Any tips for a learning beginner? Thanks!
