Change Name of Vector or Data Frame Object in R (Example Code)

This post illustrates how to rename data objects in R.

Creating Example Data

my_x <- 1:5                          # Create vector object
my_x                                 # Show vector in RStudio console
# [1] 1 2 3 4 5

Example: Store Values of Vector in New Data Object

my_x_new <- my_x                     # Rename data object in R
my_x_new                             # Show new vector object in RStudio console
# [1] 1 2 3 4 5
