Adding multiple columns (I)
More often than not, you may want to add/update multiple columns by reference. There are two ways to do this in data.table:
- LHS := RHS form
- Functional form
In this exercise, you will add columns using the LHS := RHS form. In the LHS, you specify column names as a character vector and in the RHS, you specify values/expressions to be added inside list() (or the alias, .()).
