Write function in R and get Error: unexpected '}' in “}”

Question

I am using the R version of 3.6.1 GUI 1.70 El Capitan build (7684) in Mac os. And I tried to write a function:

myfunction <- founction(x) {

     y <- rnorm(100)

     mean(y)

}

Then I copy and paste the above command on the console, though I got the result: mean, I also noticed two errors about "{":

myfunction <- founction(x) {

>Error: unexpected '{' in "myfunction <- founction(x) {"    

y <- rnorm(100)

mean(y)

[1] 0.0758422

}

Error: unexpected '}' in "}"

Could someone give me some advice? 

Answer 1

In your code, there is a typo mistake, you should write function() just remove the letter o:

myfunction <- function(x) {
