Where does L come from?

Sat, Aug 25, 2018 6:26 AM

Hi all,

Would someone mind pointing to me to the inspiration for the use of
the L suffix to mean "integer"?  This is obviously hard to google for,
and the R language definition
(https://cran.r-project.org/doc/manuals/r-release/R-lang.html#Constants)
is silent.
