Below is a summary on returning variable from subfunction, Thanks to
Brian Ripley and Douglas Bates:
To access the variables within a function, return a list or data structure
assigned to a variable in the calling function. For more than one varaible,
assign them to a list variable and separate the components in the calling
function using listname$variablename.
"test" <-
function()
{
"hello" <-
function()
{
x <- 1:3
y <- 23:34
z <- cbind(x,y)
return(x,y,z)
}
c <- hello()
return(c$z,c$x, c$y)
}
