Hi all,
I have the following 7 x 7 matrix. I am trying to figure out how to
label the columns to something more descriptive other than [,1], [,2],
etc.
I have tried the c(x,y,z,) function, but I get a error returned
stating that my vectors need to be the same length. Do I need to
convert this to something else such as a list and then repack it?
Thanks,
Kindra

I suspect that is a zoo object, a special sort of matrix. Your
questions would be more clear if instead of presenting the results of
the print command you would instead present the results of dput(object).
The answers you have gotten so far will work if it is a zoo object
