I have read the help page, or at least ?fisher.exact

I looked a bit on the Internet I guess it is applicable to > 2x2.  I had
spoken to a biostatistician here who is quite excellent and was adamant with
me I could not do > 2x2.

I found this:

http://mathworld.wolfram.com/FishersExactTest.html

Does anyone know specifically how R is calculating this?
