Hi guys, I checked previous posts and I saw similar questions have been answered; they didn't help me solve my problem though. I am using R version 2.13.0 (2011-04-13), Platform: x86_64-pc-mingw32/x64 (64-bit) and I am having difficulties renaming variables. I tried with this command:
names (oldvariable) <- 'new_variable' and now when I type in oldvariable the new name pops out in form: [1] "new_variable" BUT when I try typing in new_variable I get the message Error: object 'new_variable' not found I also tried with fix(mydata) command, but editor basically opens up empty, so I don't understand why this is happening. If you know how to advise me, I'll be grateful. Thank you!
