print(data.head()) 
info=cb.get_info(name)

The last line in the screenshot gives the name of the dataset. In the previous example, we used the dataset with the name 82070ENG.

1. To find out all the names of lists, we use the get_table_list() function; see the following code:

import cbsodata as cb 
list=cb.get_table_list() 
print(list)
