Add is_former_country flag to referendum data

Augments data with an additional column is_former_country indicating whether or not the column country_code holds an ISO 3166-3 alpha-4 code referring to a historical country which ceased to exist. is_former_country being FALSE means country_code holds an ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 code instead.

Usage

add_former_country_flag(data)

Arguments

data

RDB referendum data as returned by rfrnds(). A data frame that at minimum contains the column country_code (with ISO 3166-1 alpha-2 or ISO 3166-3 alpha-4 codes).
