You can use names(database)[position]

where position is the number of the column that you want to rename!

Assunto: [R] Change name of a specific column of a data frame


Hi,

Sorry for the simple question. Is there a way to change the name of only one
column of an existing data frame?

I know colnames allows you to set the name of all the columns, but only one
column in the middle of my data frame needs a new name.

Thanks,
-Nina
