All -
I feel like I'm overlooking a simple solution. Is there a way to rename a single column in a kable() table?
Example of the original table.
library(tidyverse)
library(knitr)
tbl <- tibble(first_point=c(1,2,3), Second=c(4,5,6), Third=c(7,8,9))
kable()
Example of the desired table. I would prefer to not have to specify the "Second" and "Third" column names.
kable(tbl, col.names=c("First","Second","Third")
EDIT:
Thanks to everyone for their suggestions. I used @bouncyball's simple but effective tactic of automatically adding the column names for the other columns rather than manually including them when changing a single column. I didn't even consider that route. kable(tbl, col.names = c("First", names(tbl)[-1]))
