I am using R 3.01 on R Studio to merge two data sets with approx 120
variables and the other with 140 variables but with a serialno as the
unique identifier.
i.e

Serialno  name  year outcome
1             ken    1989   d
2             mary 1989    a
4             john    1989   a
5             tom     1989   a
6             jolly   1989      d

and

Serialno  name       year       disch_type
11             mwai    1990       d
21          wanjiku  1990        a
43           maina    1990       a
55            john     1990       a
67             welly   1990       d

How can I merge them to a common data set without having name.x and
name.y or year.x and year.y after merging
