#' Apply a black or white 'RStudio' Theme and Zoom Level
#'
#' This comes in hand when teaching, the function allows users to apply a "black" or "white" 'RStudio' theme and adjust the zoom level in the 'RStudio' IDE. It includes error handling for invalid inputs.
#'
#' @param color A character string. The theme color to apply. Must be either \code{"black"} (dark theme) or \code{"white"} (light theme). Default is \code{"black"}.
#' @param zlevel A numeric value. The zoom level to apply, ranging from \code{0} (default size) to \code{4} (maximum zoom). Default is \code{0}.
#'
#' @details
#' The function performs the following actions:
#' \enumerate{
#' \item Applies the specified 'RStudio' theme:
#' \itemize{
#'   \item \code{"black"}: Applies the "Tomorrow Night 80s" dark theme.
#'   \item \code{"white"}: Applies the "Textmate (default)" light theme.
#'   }
#' \item Adjusts the zoom level in 'RStudio':
#' \itemize{
#'   \item \code{zlevel = 0}: Resets to default zoom level.
#'   \item \code{zlevel = 1}: Zooms in once.
#'   \item \code{zlevel = 2}: Zooms in twice.
#'   \item \code{zlevel = 3}: Zooms in three times.
#'   \item \code{zlevel = 4}: Zooms in four times.
#'   }
#'}
#' The function includes error handling to ensure valid inputs:
#'  \itemize{
#' \item \code{color} must be a character string and one of \code{"black"} or \code{"white"}.
#' \item \code{zlevel} must be a numeric value, an integer, and within the range of 0 to 4. If a non-integer is provided, it will be rounded to the nearest integer with a warning.
#' }
#'
#'@return None. The function is called for its side effects of changing the 'RStudio' theme or Zoomlevel.

#' @return This function does not return a value. It applies changes directly to the 'RStudio' IDE.
#'
#' @examples
#' # NOTE: This example will change your RStudio theme hence the dont run warning.
