I'm learning R and like the language very much because of its flexibility, but I want to know:
- Are there any ports of R for mobile devices?
- Where can I get them?

A:
R has been ported to a number of devices. Learning to use a search engine (as has been suggested to Nathan many times) may be beneficial -- and rseek.org (using the 'support lists' tab) almost immediately leads me to
- R on Sharp Zaurus post from 2004
- R on iPhone post from 2008 confirming you can build it, albeit sans GUI
- More on R on iPhone in the context of an R on Android question
Nathan, may I suggest that you do a bit more homework and learn to Google first?

I've searched on Google, but is difficult to search as we got many wrong links. I've searched for: `R+Language+Mobile`

What you search on Google when you need something of **R**?

Try the rseek.org site I pointed out. On Google itself, I sometimes do 'someterm r-help' or 'someterm site:r-project.org'.

Here are two other 'persistent searches'--which along w/ the one mentioned by Dirk above, are the three i know of and use fairly often--one is a Google Custom Search from Dan Goldstein (http://www.dangoldstein.com/search_r.html). The other hits the R Site and drills right down to the bedrock: "[it allows] you to search the contents of the R functions, package vignettes, task views, and R-help mail archives."
