[R] Question about functions in R

I tried to make the following function:

function(x, y){
   dates<-intersect(x[,1],y[,1])
   m<-matrix(NA,length(dates),3)
   m[,1]<-dates
   j<-1
   k<-1
   for(i in fdax[,1]){
      if(is.element(i,dates)){
         m[j,3]<-as.numeric(fdax[k,2])
         j<-j+1
      }
      k<-k+1
   }
   return(m)
}

When I try to import it into R with edit( file="name.txt",
editor="someeditor") I get the response that there is an error on the
line where last bracket is.
When I execute this code manualy in R command by command everything works ok.
This happened to me before with other functions. Sometimes I can
import them and they work perfectly but sometimes I get the error on
the last line of code which is alvays the final bracket.

Anyone has any idea why this is happening?
