Well, beside this remark on the completely nonsensical subject of this
message, I'd suggest to read the manual "An Introduction to R" or other
introductory literature.
Please try to understand the scoping rules. You need to return() values
from the function, in any other case the environment the function is
executed in will be deleted after execution (this summary is too short,
but I don't want to rewrite existing literature).
