What are you trying to accomplish by passing `return()` to a formal parameter?
Might returning a logical serve your purpose? Then you could say
"if(!continueIfTrue(...))return(...)". Will this do what you want?
Spencer
telemStats <- function(){
y <- substitute(return())
That last bit of code doesn't make a lot of sense either. The `substitute` function is
specifically designed to NOT evaluate the first argument but rather to return an
unevaluated call. If you wanted to actually "return" from that function you
would assuredly not use `return` within the substitute argument.
You need to explain what you want to accomplish rather than posting failed
code.
