#' Convert country codes or country names
#'
#' The \code{countrycode} function can convert to and from 12 different country coding schemes.
#' It uses regular expressions to convert long country names (e.g. Sri Lanka) into any of
#' those coding schemes, or into standardized country names (official short English).
#' It can create variables with the name of the continent and/or region to which each
#' country belongs.
