I am confused. On the former rstudio.com, now posit.co, it says "RStudio is an integrated development environment (IDE) for R and Python." What is it that you are looking for?

I don't use APL, but I do occasionally use j ( https://www.jsoftware.com/ ), which is basically APL without the special character set, although mostly for fun. I have not written any FORTRAN in a very long time, but I s
