Clarify motivation section text

[acollens]

Removed excess language and re-ordered paragraphs for clarity. I removed jargon before it was defined (e.g. IDE) and removed repetitive language. I also clarified why R is a useful tool to learn compared to Excel or Sheets.

Thanks @acollens for the suggested improvements. It reads well to me and make sense too.

@zkamvar - if you have time, can you please review so that we can merge this one?

[zkamvar]

This looks okay to me. There is only one minor syntax error, but it is not a big deal.

I'm not sure why the checks did not run, but since this is all text annotations, I am confident that it will merge well and run correctly.

@zkamvar - thanks. I have committed the suggested change and also the checks are now running.
