Convert location codes to ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country codes

Returns the ISO 3166-1 alpha-3 country code for each location code. csdata carries Norwegian data only, so the implementation returns "nor" for every element without inspecting its value. A code from another country, or a string that is not a location code at all, also returns "nor".

Usage

location_code_to_iso3(x)

Arguments

x

A character vector of location codes, or a data.table with a column named location_code. A plain data.frame is not supported: it falls through to the default method, which returns one value per column rather than one per row.

Value

A character vector of "nor". It has the same length as x, or as many elements as x has rows when x is a data.table.

No vignette covers this function. vignette("locations_norway", package = "csdata") tabulates the location_code values returned by nor_locations_names().

Examples

csdata::location_code_to_iso3(c("nation_nor", "county_nor03", "municip_nor0301"))
#> [1] "nor" "nor" "nor"

# the input value is not inspected
csdata::location_code_to_iso3(c("county_nor03", "xyz"))
#> [1] "nor" "nor"

library(data.table)
dt <- data.table(location_code = c("nation_nor", "county_nor03"))
csdata::location_code_to_iso3(dt)
#> [1] "nor" "nor"
