This can be useful when it is desired to have functions return values which can be assigned, but which do not print when they are not assigned. _E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s: # These functions both return their argument # The value returned by the second does not print f1 <- function(x) x f2 <- function(x) invisible(x)
