private statement
return statement
return[
expression
]
Specifies the value returned by a function. The
return
statement evaluates
expression
and
returns the result as a value of the function in which it executes. The
return
statement causes
execution to return immediately to the calling function. If the
return
statement is used alone,
it returns
undefined.
You can't return multiple values. If you try to do so, only the last value is returned. In the
following example,
c
is returned:
return a, b, c ;
If you need to return multiple values, you might want to use an array or object instead.

Parameters

return the added value of the three parameters. The next line of code calls
sum()
and assigns
the returned value to the variable
newValue
.
function sum(a:Number, b:Number, c:Number):Number {
return (a + b + c);
}
var newValue:Number = sum(4, 32, 78);
trace(newValue); // output: 114
