I want to update my dataframe adding value in various columns.



My dataframe has A-Z columns name.
I created a list specifiying which column want to update.



upd<-c("a","b","c","d")


And i used simple R syntax to update



df<-df[,names(df)%in%upd]+5


But I only have a,b,c,d columns.



is there one way to save all columns?.



thanks

  • Try df[,names(df) %in% upd] <- df[,names(df) %in% upd] + 5

    or for readability, but slower : library(dplyr); df <- mutate_at(df, upd, ~.+5)
