Hello!
Some CS-guys (the type who knows what Church formalism is) keep asking me questions about formal definitions of R-language that I can not answer (or even understand). Is there some freely available papers which I can throw at them where it would be explained is R functional/OOP/procedural language, does it use weak/strong, dynamic/static typization, does it use lazy or ...(do not know what) evaluation, what sort of garbage collector it uses?
Thanks.

R ships with a draft version of the manual "R Language Definition". Another source is Venables & Ripley (2000): S Programming, Springer.
