R rename singl edf column
To rename a single column in an R dataframe, you can use the rename()
function from the dplyr
package. Here are the steps to rename a single column in R:
- Install and load the
dplyr
package:
install.packages("dplyr") # Install the package
library(dplyr) # Load the package
- Create a dataframe or use an existing one:
df <- data.frame(col1 = c(1, 2, 3), col2 = c("A", "B", "C")) # Example dataframe
- Use the
rename()
function to rename the column:
df <- rename(df, new_col = col1)
In this example, the column named "col1" is renamed to "new_col".
- View the updated dataframe:
print(df)
The output will show the updated dataframe with the renamed column.
That's it! You have successfully renamed a single column in R using the rename()
function from the dplyr
package.
