The dhyper etc deal with the hypergeometric _distribution_ while what
you appear to want have is the hypergeometric special function (the
connection is that the regular hypergeometric function is the
generating function for the hypergeometric distribution if I recall
correctly).
Anyway, what you need, I believe, is the hypergeo library from CRAN.
