[R] output of several "results" from a function

[Ista Zahn]

Hi Johannes,

You are on the right track. Just need to use the right line break
indicators, and explicitly call print. Like this:

tmp <- list(A="A123",B="B123")

summaryout=function(x,...){
       cat("This is output A:\n")
       print(x$A)
       cat("This is output B:\n")
       print(x$B)
}

summaryout(tmp)

Best,
Ista
