I have a parameter called country_name that reflects the name of a country I am interested in and which I change sometimes when I run my code, I would like my RDA file to reflect that name change once saved and loaded back into the environment.
Currently what happens is this:
Name the country:
country_name <- "Ireland"
Create a simple data frame:
x <- 10
vars_2_keep <- data.frame(x)
vars_2_keep
It contains x=10
x
1 10
I save it, renaming the data frame with the country name so that when I do this with a different country I will have country specific information:
save(vars_2_keep, file=paste("my_data_", country_name[1], ".rda", sep = ""))
I delete everything, and load it back in:
rm(list=ls())
load(file='my_data_Ireland.rda')
Unfortunately, in the environment instead of my data frame being called "my_data_Ireland", it is still called vars_2_keep.
How can I update the name of this data frame to my_data_country_name[1] (which in this example would be my_data_Ireland)
Thank you
