Introduction: R is a programming language that can be used to efficiently solve statistical problems.
Objectives: To demonstrate the method of building functions using R in statistical analysis and storing it for future use.
Materials and Methods: A real world example of comparison of statistical values in aneurysm research with respect to its locations has been used to demonstrate how one might build a function using R.
Results: Accurate results could be obtained and the function can be stored for later use.
Conclusions: As the statistical tools required in research are recurrent, building functions in R and storing them for future use is highly recommended.
