I have been wondering the same thing. I thought that maybe somehow you could return an array with all the values. But I am not sure how to do that.

You should probably initialize the values as space(1) i.e. a character when you would be looking for a number in the answers. If a,b and c have numerical answers then you know they were generated by the funtion.
