This makes no sense at all to me; you get the same result simply by 
typing "c".

If the OP's message is interpreted literally, all he needs to do is type 
"names(c)".  But this may not be what he *really* wants.  It's hard to tell.

Note that "c" is *not* a good name for a data set, since it is the name 
of an (important) base function.

cheers,
