For those who use R, how hard is it to search for material on the web? I imagine in some cases the search engine may treat the R as a typo?

That isn't an issue, Google's pretty smart. The actual documentation is terrible though, and you do not have the depth of StackOverflow posts to make up for R's inscrutable and sometimes non-existent errors.

Zero issue whatsoever.

It can be a nuisance. Searching eg for R go interoperability yields interesting results. Adding "statistics" usually gives reasonable results. But there is also rseek.org

I've had less and less trouble over the last couple of years. If I'm worried, I'll add 'cran' into the search string.
