Dear persons who are not complete idiots:

Do you remember the ACM forbidding Ada at coding contests?

HTTPS://IEEEXplore.IEEE.org/Xplorehelp/faqs/code-ocean#what-programming-languages-are-currently-supported
and HTTPS://help.CodeOcean.com/en/articles/1120266-which-programming-languages-does-the-platform-support
forbid Ada so they allow many worse-than-useless languages. E.g. MATLAB. MATLAB is not strongly typed so pretending that a 1d array is 2d but
making a single character typo (e.g. fft() instead of fft2()) messes up.

E.g. R. ``R crashes'' says HTTPS://CRAN.R-Project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Lexical-scoping

``missing or incorrect code in R'' says HTTPS://CRAN.R-Project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Others

``errors later in the code'' says HTTPS://CRAN.R-Project.org/doc/FAQ/R-FAQ.html#Why-do-my-matrices-lose-dimensions_003f

``About 148,000,000 results'' says
HTTPS://RSeek.org
about "crash". ``I find that my R session crashes very often, at random
times for random reasons'' says HTTPS://StackOverFlow.com/questions/35318760/how-to-recover-rstudio-session-after-crash
for example. ``Session is abruptly aborted as soon as a data.frame is
defined with no error code being printed, except of course; "R
encountered a fatal error. The session was terminated".'' says HTTPS://community.RStudio.com/t/rstudio-crashes-when-defining-data-frame-in-version-2023-09-1-or-newer/179120
for example.

Python+Jupyter+NumPy/SciPy+Pandas+Matplotlib is a more productive toolkit
for that kind of stuff anyway.
