Probability <- function(N, f, m, b, x, t) {
        #N is the number of lymph nodes
        #f is the fraction of Dendritic cells (in the correct node) that have 
the
antigen
        #m is the number of time steps
        #b is the starting position (somewhere in the node or somewhere in the 
gap
between nodes. It is a number between 1 and (x+t))
        #x is the number of time steps it takes to traverse the gap
        #t is the number of time steps it takes to traverse a node. 
                A <- 1/N
                B <- 1-A
                C <- 1-f
                D <- (((m+b-1)%%(x+t))+1)

first node          
                        if (D<=t) { # we finish in a node
                                a <- (B + A*(C^(t-b))) #first node
                                b <- ((B + A*(C^t))^(floor((m+b)/(x+t))-1))  #

any)
                                c <- (B + A*(C^D))  # last node

                                return(d)
                                } else {Probability(N, f, (m-1), b, x, t)} ## 
finish in a gap   
                } else {###### starts outside node
                        if (m<=(x+t-b)) {return(1)} #also end in the gap
                        if (D<=t) { #end in a node
                                b <- ((B + A*(C^t))^(floor((m/(x+t)))))
                                c <- (B + (A*(C^D)))
                                d <- (b*c)
                                return(d)
                                } else {Probability(N, f, (m-1), b, x, t)} 
#outside node
                }
        }               

I wanted to get the sum of the probability at  all the values of "b" (ie.
Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 1, 4, 5) + Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 2, 4, 5)... +
Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 9, 4, 5). For that I can just use the sum() function
right? 
But since m is the time steps, is it possible for me to input m and b and
get the sum mentioned before at each value of m?
So like ((Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 1, 4, 5) + Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 2, 4,
5)... + Probability(10, 0.1, 1, 9, 4, 5)), Probability(10, 0.1, 2, 1, 4, 5)
+ Probability(10, 0.1, 2, 2, 4, 5)... + Probability(10, 0.1, 2, 9, 4, 5)...)

This is what I have right now, but it doesn't work:
summing<- function(N,f,m, x, t ){
        B <- c(1:(x+t))
        C <- (sum(Probability(N, f, B, 1, x, t)))
        M = 2
        if (M<=max(m)) {
                B <- c(1:(x+t))
                append(C,sum(Probability(N, f, M, B, x, t)), after=M-1)
                M = M+1} else {return(C)}
                }
