How do I make a function?

Answer 1

Essentially, you create a function by giving it a name, the inputs, and the form of the output. See the code block below for an example.

```

myfun <- function(x, y) { # Set the name of your function and define the number of inputs ("formals")

(x + y)/y # This is the body of the function. Define what you want the function to compute.

}

myfun(100, 300) # == 1.333333

```
