Setting up my environment

Notes: Setting up my R environment by loading 'ggplot2' and 'palmerpenguin' packages

library(tidyverse)
library(palmerpenguins)
library(ggplot2)
library(Tmisc)
data(penguins)
View(penguins)

I'm getting the following error while trying to knit.

The View() command opens your data frame on the data viewer panel, this obviously won't work on a knitted document because there is no view panel on a pdf or html document that is why the process fails. Simply remove the view command from your Rmd file.
