1, Please post in plain text, not HTML, as requested by the posting guide.

2. R is not C, You define, not declare, functions, whose scope and
availability are then determined appropriately. Where is ga() defined?

3. Have you read an Introduction to R or other R tutorial? If not, do
so before posting further. You need to do due diligence before
requesting help.

4. If you have, read the R Language Definition Ref for details of how
scoping in R is determined. R is a functional type language (like LISP
or Scheme)

5. Functions are fully first class objects and can be returned by
other functions.

Cheers,

Bert
