Hello. I am new to R, so my question/problem might be very basic, but I cannot figure out how to solve it. So, I would really appreciate your help.
I would like to rename a variable in a very large file (181GB) called "2013.xdf" that is saved on my external hard drive. I tried running the following code to rename variable # 2 in the file and save this change, which produced some errors that I cannot resolve: > temp.data <- rxGetVarInfo("E:/2013.xdf") > temp.data[2] <- "transsactionnumber" > rxSetVarInfo(2013fixed.data, outfile) Error: unexpected symbol in "rxSetVarInfo(2013fixed.data" > rxSetVarInfo(temp.data, outfile) Error in is.data.frame(file) : object 'outfile' not found > rxSetVarInfo(outfile) Error in rxSetVarInfoXdf(varInfo, file = data) : object 'outfile' not found Please help me figure out how to do it right.
