[R] ISO3 code to 7 continents names

[Miluji Sb]

df is a data frame consisting of one variable (iso3 codes) such as

USA
RUS
ARG
BGD
ITA
FRA


Some of these iso3 codes are repeated and I would like the corresponding
continent name, the countrycode package does not seem to distinguish
between North and South America. Thanks.

Sincerely,

Milu
