Fortran?

In a package, i type a function name and got the following message:
...
tmp <- .Fortran("master", x = as.double(x), y = as.double(y),
sort = as.logical(sort), rw = as.double(rw), npd = as.integer(npd),
ntot = as.integer(ntot), nadj = integer(tadj), madj = as.integer(madj),
ind = integer(npd), tx = double(npd), ty = double(npd),
ilist = integer(npd), eps = as.double(eps), delsgs = double(tdel),
ndel = as.integer(ndel), delsum = double(ntdel),
dirsgs = double(tdir), ndir = as.integer(ndir), dirsum = double(ntdir),
nerror = integer(1))
...
does it mean this function is using something from FORTRAN?
Well, it's using a binary object that was compiled from FORTRAN code. The sources for the package will contain the actual human-readable code. For more details (likely more than you can handle at this point...), look in the Writing R Extensions manual.
Thanks a lot!
