I have a file wtf.r containing the following code
test <- c(1:5)
abc <- c(1:5)
df <- data.frame(test, abc)
df$te
This returns [1] 1 2 3 4 5 both interactively in RStudio and by running rscript C:/Users/xx/Documents/wtf.r, so it is not a problem with RStudio but rather with R.
Note that using df <- data.frame(test, abc) %>% as_tibble fixes the problem:
> df$te
NULL
Warning message:
Unknown or uninitialised column: `te`.
And that this bug only exists when the column name can be autocompleted unabiguously. for example:
> test <- c(1:5)
> test2 <- c(1:5)
> df <- data.frame(test, test2)
> df$te
NULL

I am interested in any comments shedding some light on the root cause of this behaviour.
