Hi all,

if I transpose a matrix with t(data), the newly created colums do not appear to have the first row as header. How can I do to have all the newly created columns have their first row as a header?

The term "header" doesn't really have meaning in R with reference to matrices. And the analog that might make sense, column names, fails to behave in the manner of your complaint.


> M <- matrix(1:9, 3,3)
> colnames(M) <- letters[1:3]
> M
     a b c
[1,] 1 4 7
[2,] 2 5 8
[3,] 3 6 9
> t(M)
  [,1] [,2] [,3]
a    1    2    3
b    4    5    6
c    7    8    9

So exactly _what_ is your problem?
