   MATLAB is, or was, written in Fortran. Out of curiosity, I looked up   
   PV-Wave -- looks like the kind of thing you would do in NumPy these   
   days. Similarly in place of MATLAB you could use NumPy with   
   Matplotlib.   
      
   I did a GUI programming job in MATLAB once. Trying to fit GUI   
   functionality on top of a language primarily designed to work with   
   arrays/matrices was ... an experience I would not like to repeat.
