Renaming a column in Google BigQuery is a simple process. The following example code shows how to rename a column from old_name to new_name:

ALTER TABLE my_table
RENAME COLUMN old_name TO new_name;

No output is generated from this command.

The code consists of two parts:

1. ALTER TABLE my_table: This part of the code specifies the table to be altered.
2. RENAME COLUMN old_name TO new_name;: This part of the code renames the column old_name to new_name.
