R source is available on CRAN, e.g.,
http://cran.r-project.org/src/base/R-2/R-2.12.1.tar.gz
Many functions can be displayed simply by typing theme , e.g.,
> methods(mean)
[1] mean.data.frame mean.Date mean.default mean.difftime
[5] mean.POSIXct mean.POSIXlt> mean.default
Many other functions are net exported (methods() will mark these with
an asterisk), but can be retrieved using
getAnywhere("fun")
.Internal functions such as rnorm cannot be retrieved in this way as
far as I know. You may have to download the source and find it
direclty.
