List elements of a dataset's package-CodePudding

Say we have a dataset package like palmerpenguins, What R function can we use in order to show the names of the sub-datasets which are inside this package? Thanks!

You can use the function datasets() from package vcdExtra, which given a package name gives the name, dimension, and a bit of information about the datasets in that package.

vcdExtra::datasets("palmerpenguins")

#> Loading package: palmerpenguins
#>                      Item      class    dim
#> 1                penguins data.frame  344x8
#> 2 penguins_raw (penguins) data.frame 344x17
#>                                                                                              Title

We can use

data(package = "palmerpenguins")[["results"]][,"Item"]
