return statement
The return statement is a control directive that returns control normally
to the caller of a function, class, getter, or setter. In the case of a
getter or non-void function, it also specifies the return value.
Usage
For getters or non-void functions, a return statement specifies a
a result expression:
// ...within a getter or function
return resultExpression;
For void functions, classes, or setters, no result expression is given:
// ...within a void function, class, or setter
return;
Description
Execution
The result expression, if any, is evaluated, and then execution resumes with the caller of the value getter or function.
