[ONKELINX, Thierry]

Dear Katherine,

Combine both outputs in a list and return that.

return(list(first = output.1, second = output.2))

To call in the statistician after the experiment is done may be no more than asking him to perform a post-mortem examination: he may be able to say what the experiment died of.

The plural of anecdote is not data.

The combination of some data and an aching desire for an answer does not ensure that a reasonable answer can be extracted from a given body of data.

Onderwerp: [R] Double return statement

Dear R forum,

I have a function which generates say two outputs, say output_1 and output_2. Output_1 is a single row output whereas Output_2 is a dataframe having multiple records. Is it possible to use two return statements in function. Output_2 uses some records from output_1, hence I need to have these outputs generated from the same function.

Thanking in advance

With warm regards

Katherine
