[R] Re: R bug? (if-else problem in main program)

[Anita Gulyasne Goldpergel]

Thank you very much everybody for your answers!
Before I wrote my message, I had tried to use
brackets. So I've discovered something, what can be
useful for everyone: 

If I put the end-bracelet in different line from else,
it doesn't work: 

if ( a == 1 ) {
 print("yes")
 }
else {
 print("no")
} 

But if I put it one line, as you wrote, like } else {
it works. 

Thanks again, 

Anita
