Hello all, I am trying to use cbind to add a named empty column to a Matrix:
outputmatrix <- cbind(outputmatrix,kog_id = seq(0,0,0)) The problem I have is that kog_id is a variable that has a value e.g. "KOG1234", but I when I try to use this to name the added column, it is named literally "kog_id" instead of "KOG1234". How can I name a column by passing in a variable for the column name? I am performing this action inside of a for loop, so I can't necessarily know the position of the column in order to name it after it is created.
