Do you want to create a function or something like a function or a package?
Creating a function is easy:
doAThing <- function(a, b, c){
print("The cow jumped over the moon")
return(a + b^c)
}
Something like a function is somewhat ambiguous.
To create a package, start with the package.skeleton() function.
If it's a single function you want to distribute and it has no
compiled code or external dependencies, the package structure might be
overkill (though best practice) but you'll learn a fair bit by doing
it. If you just want to distribute a single function, you could also
put it in a text file that others could source().
