It appears that combn is implemented in R, so you can see the code by typing combn <Enter>

It begins

function (x, m, FUN = NULL, simplify = TRUE, ...) 
{
    stopifnot(length(m) == 1L)
    if (m < 0) 
....

This is not the forum to copy and paste source code, but you can very easily see the code.
