dear all
I have two questions

1) How can I write a function that accepts multiple inputs (arguments) and
return multiple values? The straightforward method accepts multiple values
and returns a single value (that is the name of the function)

2) How can I write a function that accepts multiple arrays as input
arguments and returns an array too.

ex: if I have two arrays x , y
how can I configure a function f(x,y) that return an array representing the
pointwise multiplication of x,y
i.e f(i)= x(i)* y(i)

thanks in advance

Public Function MultArray(x, y)
Dim f() As Double
ReDim f(LBound(x) To UBound(x))
For i = LBound(x) To UBound(x)
f(i) = x(i) * y(i)
Next
MultArray = f
End Function

Sub tester4()
Dim u As Variant
Dim x As Variant, y As Variant
x = Array(1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10)
y = Array(2, 4, 6, 8, 10, 12, 14, 16, 18, 20)
u = MultArray(x, y)
For i = LBound(u) To UBound(u)
Debug.Print i, u(i)
Next

End Sub

Would be one possibility
