Renaming sheets
Come to think of it, "data_summary" is not an ideal name. As the summary of these excel sheets is always data-related, you simply want to name the sheet "summary".
The code to build a connection to "urbanpop.xlsx" and create my_book is already provided for you. It refers to an Excel file with 4 sheets: the three data sheets, and the "data_summary" sheet.
This is a part of the course
“Introduction to Importing Data in R”
Exercise instructions
- Use
renameSheet()to rename the fourth sheet to"summary". - Next, call
getSheets()onmy_bookto print out the sheet names. - Finally, make sure to actually save the
my_bookobject to a new Excel file,"renamed.xlsx".
