Result

Many, but not all, commands return results. The result of a command is the value generated when the command is executed. The "Result" section of a command definition tells whether a result is returned, and if so, lists its class. For example, the result of an AppleScript Count command is an integer that specifies the counted number of elements of a specified class.

For more information about results, see Using Results.
