Explanation / Answer

We can customize functions to server our special needs. If you often need to perform a particular group of steps, you can package them into a function, so that they are easier to re-use, comparing to copy-paste-modify a big chunk of lines every time.

name <- function(argument_1, argument_2, …){
    commands
    return(value)    # not required
}

THe function here is

myfunction <= function(){
x= rnorm(100)
mean(x)
}

ehich writes the random numbers

Here a small chnage in theabove code

use browsre to open a interctive console and

myfunction <= function(){
x<-rnorm(100)

browsre()
return mean(x)
}

this could be work now.
