  5. There's definitely a need for a book with a title like "Statistical Software Engineering with R", which would explain R from a programming languages point of view, discuss principles of functional programming and object-oriented programming in R, and really focus on best practices for developing relatively large systems.

  7. @Konrad Rudolph R uses some rules/principles when designing the language and code interpretation for efficiency and usability that not saw in other languages. I believe most people who ask the difference between = and <- is curious about why R has more than one assignment operator compared with other popular Science/math language such as Python.

The fourth form is also known as the slot operator, and is used to extract content from objects built with the S4 object system, also known as a formally defined object in R.

  9. I think it is because % has often be associated with the modulus operator in many programming languages. It is the case, e.g., in C, C++, C# and Java, and many other languages which derive their syntax from C (C itself took it from B).

  10. I can’t speculate on R’s reasons for allowing left-to-right assignment. And it’s certainly true that most programming languages (nearly all, in fact) perform only right-to-left assignment. That said, R isn’t entirely on its own. I'm not familiar with any other language that allows the right-assignment semantics.

  11. Is R an interpreted or compiled programming language?

    stackoverflow.com/questions/1677021

    You can build a compiler or interpreter for any programming language. In general, the language itself is not compiled or interpreted. So, R could be either interpreted or compiled. Nonetheless, in the most common implementation, R is interpreted.
