dot-TrimColNames: Remove prefixes from data frame column names

In irwinsnet/FIRST_api_R: Tools to Download and Convert FIRST API Data to R Data Frames

Description

.TrimColNames is an internal function that is not intended to be called by the user. It is called by other FIRST API methods.

Usage

.TrimColNames(col_names)

Arguments

col_names

A character vector of column names, generally provided by the names() function.

Details

.TrimColNames removes all portions of a string up to and including the first period. It's intended to produce shorter column names that are easier to type in R interactive sessions. Column names without periods are left unchanged.

Value

A character vector of trimmed column names, with the same length as the col_names argument.

Examples

names(rankings) <- .TrimColNames(names(rankings))
