R dataset not found?

I'm trying to load the dataset life.expectancy.1971 , but seem to have trouble loading it. I'm inputting

data(life.expectancy.1971)
life.expectancy.1971

and keep getting the following error:

data set �life.expectancy.1971� not foundError: object 'life.expectancy.1971' not found.

I'm still pretty new to R so it could be a simple error on my part, but I haven't been able to figure out what's wrong since that has worked for loading other datasets. Can anyone help me figure out what I'm missing?

Have you installed the package cluster.datasets and load it? For me, it is working correctly after loading the package. library(cluster.datasets); data(life.expectancy.1971); life.expectancy.1971# country year m0 m25 m50 m75 f0 f25 f50 f75 1 Algeria 1965 63 51 30 13 67 54 34 15 – akrun
Jesus, yeah it really was that simple. I completely overlooked installing cluster.datasets first. Thanks! – Joe C.
