I am trying to assign the output of a function to a variable. However, despite presenting the results correctly initially, it throws an error "These values cannot be compared" when I try to assign it.
What am I doing wrong?

Your subject reads "Output of function looks like an array... but" and thats exactly what the problem is. What you get when you feed a range variable in your function ng just looks like a vector but it isn't and thats reason you can't assign it a variable. There may be other ways to get the output you are looking for, but to follow your sheet you have to create a vector instead of a range and then feed this vector in your function ng. You will have to vectorize that function call to make this work.
BTW, it looks like you use ng both as name of a function and also as name of a variable. This is something you sure should avoid.
