Hi list, I am having some trouble using the datasets package. The 'state' data is missing.
Evidence? (Notice there is no dataframe named "state") state.abb (state) US State Facts and Figures state.area (state) US State Facts and Figures state.center (state) US State Facts and Figures state.division (state) US State Facts and Figures state.name (state) US State Facts and Figures state.region (state) US State Facts and Figures state.x77 (state) US State Facts and Figures
So, I removed the package trying to reinstall.
Well, now you've really done it, Ollie.
What I did, Package&Data > Package Installer > Get list No 'datasets' in the list.
Correct. Also no "stats" or "base" or "graphics".
So, I tried to install using,
install.packages('datasets')
Warning message: package ?datasets? is not available (for R version 2.15.1) But, the documentation says it is built for 2.15.1. http://stat.ethz.ch/R-manual/R-patched/library/datasets/html/00Index.html
Since it is part of the base install, you may find it easiest to just reinstall R.

Yes, I must made a mistake thinking state.abb, state.area is contained in 'state'. But they are actually different data frame. But why does this list have 'state' when it doesn't actually exist?
When you execute the command: data(state) ... the interpreter loads all of those dataframes into memory. The pages says: "Usage state.abb state.area state.center state.division state.name state.region state.x77"
