Looking for an easy way to change the names of a vector
Hello,
Use ifelse, and assign its values to names(Data)
ifelse(grepl(" ", names(Data)), gsub(" ", "-", names(Data)),
paste0(names(Data), "-XXX"))
Hope this helps,

Hello again,
Let say I have following vector (this is basically a snap of very large vector):
Data <- 1:8
names(Data) <- c("ada", "fsdfs", "asd fd", "asdsa", "dsada", "asasad",
"adas asdad", "aasaa")
Data
Now I want to change the names according to following rule:
1. If there is any space then replace that space by "-"
2. Otherwise add "-XXX" at the last to each name
Therefore the names will be:
c("ada-XXX", "fsdfs-XXX", "asd-fd", "asdsa-XXX", "dsada-XXX",
"asasad-XXX", "adas-asdad", "aasaa-XXX")
Can somebody point me some direct way for that?
Thanks for your help
