Dear Lowie,

To use a function in R that you have saved in a file, you need to
source it in first (see ?source).  Try this,

source(file="pathtoyourfile/P_Value.R") #or whatever your file is named exactly

Once you do that, you should be able to use your function.  If you
always want it to load at startup, you can modify your Rprofile, I
believe. (see ?Rprofile)
