This will give you a list of the current base packages:
priority <- installed.packages()[,"Priority"]
names(priority)[priority %in% "base"]
Change "base" to "recommended" to see the current recommended packages.
The base packages are part of R, they are not available separately. If you try
to install one, you'll see a warning such as the following:
2: package 'compiler' is a base package, and should not be updated
