Hello All,
can anybody explain the behaviour of "Return" in the following examples:

Remove[f];
f[x_] := Return[b]; f[a]
f[x_] = Return[b]; f[a]
f := (Return[b]) & ; f[a]
f = (Return[b]) & ; f[a]
f := Function[Return[b]]; f[a]
f = Function[Return[b]]; f[a]

Only the first one returns the expect "b". All the others evaluate to 
"Return[b]"

Thank's  for your comment,
Daniel
