Dear all, I get an error using the return function.  The following is a
simpler version.

for (j in 1:10)
{
    samples = 5*j
    return(samples)
}

Error: no function to return from, jumping to top level


Similar warning happens with if statement.

Why do I get an error?  print() works fine.  I don't see anywhere in the
documentation says that return() is not allowed inside for loop.

I know the list is for advanced computation topics, and I don't want to
bother the list too much.  Where should I look for things like this in the
future?

?return() nor the R documentation does not mention any of this.
