Please clarify `possibly()` documentation

[phargarten2]

Greetings! Thank you for allowing an easier way to catch errors from functions using possibly().

However, the function is a bit unclear to me in what it returns (under "Value" )

Value
safely: wrapped function instead returns a list with components result and error. If an error occurred, error is an error object and result has a default value (otherwise). Else error is NULL.

quietly: wrapped function instead returns a list with components result, output, messages and warnings.

possibly: wrapped function uses a default value (otherwise) whenever an error occurs.

What precisely is a "wrapped function"? I had trouble using it, and I found two stack-overflow posts that describe how to correctly use possibly() correctly.

Something like: possibly() takes a function .f as input and exports it as a function, say possibly.f(). Any arguments that are passed to possibly.f() are passed to the function, .f.

Thanks!
