Hi Luca, How about this? # create some dummy data since I don't have your d0 or d1 > n <- 3 > d0 <- data.frame(a=runif(5),b=runif(5))
# here's the suggested code > d1 <- cbind(d0, matrix(0,nrow(d0),n)) > colnames(d1)[1:n + ncol(d0)] <- paste("V",1:n,sep="") HTH, Eric On Sun, Apr 22, 2018 at 11:13 AM, Luca Meyer <lucam1...@gmail.com> wrote: > Hi, > > I am a bit rusty with R programming and do not seem to find a solution to > add a number of variables to my existing dataframe.
