For general purpose R, I would recommend Hadley's stuff over the in a nutshell book. It's not base R, but I find it easier to write and read R using his conventions: http://r4ds.had.co.nz/

For getting started with python, I would check out "Python for Data Analysis" which is by the Pandas author. Pandas is the python port of data.frame, and I find it extremely useful. After that there a number of ML specific books.
