R function with return value

In this scenario, we will use the return statement to return some value

Syntax:

function_name <- function(parameters) {      

statements

 return(value)

}

function_name(values)

Where,

  • function_name is the name of the function
  • parameters are the values that are passed as arguments
  • return() is used to return a value
  • function_name(values) is used to pass values to the parameters

Example: R program to perform addition operation with return value

R




# define addition function
# perform addition operation on two values
addition= function(val1,val2) {  
   
  # add     
  add=val1+val2
   
  # return the result
  return(add)
 
}
 
# pass the values to the function
addition(10,20)


Output:

[1] 30
