_D_e_s_c_r_i_p_t_i_o_n:

     Internal evaluation of an R expression is always assigned to
     `.Last.value' (in `package:base') before further processing (e.g.
     printing).

_U_s_a_g_e:

     .Last.value

_N_o_t_e:

     Do not assign to `.Last.value', because this will always shadow
     the one in `package:base'.

_S_e_e _A_l_s_o:

     `eval'

_E_x_a_m_p_l_e_s:

     gamma(1:15)          # think of some intensive calculation...
     fac14 <- .Last.value # keep them

     library("eda") # returns invisibly
     .Last.value    # shows what library(.) above returned
