Overview

About

Maintained by Dennis IrorereFirst published 2024-09-122 releasesCRAN page ↗GitHub ↗

A comprehensive and user-friendly interface for accessing, manipulating, and analyzing country-level data from around the world. It allows users to retrieve detailed information on countries, including names, regions, continents, populations, currencies, calling codes, and more, all in a tidy data format. The package is designed to work seamlessly within the 'tidyverse' ecosystem, making it easy to filter, arrange, and visualize country-level data in R.

# enable cranapt (r2u) if it is not already set up, then install
grep -rqs r2u.stat.illinois.edu /etc/apt/sources.list /etc/apt/sources.list.d/ \
  || curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/eddelbuettel/r2u/master/inst/scripts/add_cranapt_noble.sh | sudo bash

For install.packages() integration in R, also: sudo dnf install R-CoprManager
