Dear R users,

I have a basic question. In an "if statement", when several expressions
have
to be evaluated, they must be put inside curly braces, right ?

Yes.

if(1 > 2) {print("hello"); print("world")}
if(4 > 2) {print("hello"); print("world")}

Well, not actually. If they are all on the same line separated by ";"'s the
parser should accept.

if(TRUE) print("hellooooo"); print("world"); y=3; z=2
y
z
I thought that at first also but look at:

if(FALSE) print("hello"); print("world")

At least on my version of R, hello is not printed but world is.

Sorry for the noise. I misinterpreted the results.

For example :

if (x>2) {

  y=3
  z=2

}


Thank you very much,
Dwayne
