r - How do I clear only a few specific objects from the workspace?

Question

I would like to remove some data from the workspace. I know the "Clear All" button will remove all data. However, I would like to remove just certain data.

For example, I have these data frames in the data section:

data
data_1
data_2
data_3

I would like to remove data_1, data_2 and data_3, while keeping data.

I tried data_1 <- data_2 <- data_3 <- NULL, which does remove the data (I think), but still keeps it in the workspace area, so it is not fully what I would like to do.

Answer 1

You'll find the answer by typing ?rm

rm(data_1, data_2, data_3)
