With the help of tidyverse how to rename a column to a variable name

Question

I have taken a simple dataset "mtcars"

Now I want to change the column "disp" to "Displacement"

I can do easily by

colnames(mtcars)[3] = "Displacement"

But I want to use tidyverse so it can be used in a pipe?

Answer 1

With the help of Dplyr: rename function we can do

rename(mtcars, !!"Displacement":=disp)

The rename is as follows rename(data, !!"New_name":="Old_name")
