Hello, this is really simple but I can't figure it out: How do I rename a column in my colData? I can change a variable within the colData column:

sce$Group <- factor(gsub("Group_A","Group_B",sce$Group))

Which will replace Group_A with Group_B within the "Group" colData. But how can I change the column title "Group" to something else?

THANK YOU

It is necessary to remain prudent with this kind of direct modifications on the SCE objects, the best being to conceive well the SCE object at the very beginning rather than to make modifications afterwards. However, you could rename the columns of the colData feature : names(colData(sce))[which(names(colData(sce))=="Group")]="new_variable"
