Rename

The "rename" function is a data manipulation operation used to change the name of columns or indexes in a dataset. This operation is helpful when you need to make column names more descriptive, consistent, or easier to understand. Renaming columns can also be useful when you want to merge or join datasets with similar data but different column names.

Here's an example of using the rename function on a dataset:
Dataset:
A | B |
---|---|
1 | 2 |
3 | 4 |
5 | 6 |
Suppose you want to rename columns A and B to "Column1" and "Column2," respectively. After applying the rename function, you'll get:
Renamed dataset:
Column1 | Column2 |
---|---|
1 | 2 |
3 | 4 |
5 | 6 |
In Octai, you can use built-in functions or operations to apply the rename function to your data. By giving columns or indexes meaningful and consistent names, you can make your dataset more understandable and easier to work with, improving the overall quality of your analysis and the interpretability of your results.
