How do I change the name of one column in a data frame ? Suppose I have a data frame x with 5 columns. If the names were date, col1, col2, col3, col4 and I wanted to simply change the name of date, what would the command be ? I tried the following and it didn't seem to work :
names(x[1]) <- "newname" Thanks in advance for the comments -- View this message in context: http://r.789695.n4.nabble.com/data-frame-column-name-change-tp3220684p3220684.html Sent from the R help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________ R-help@r-project.org mailing list https://stat.ethz.ch/mailman/listinfo/r-help PLEASE do read the posting guide http://www.R-project.org/posting-guide.html and provide commented, minimal, self-contained, reproducible code.
