International phone numbers
You work for a multinational company that uses auto-dialer software to contact its customers. When new customers subscribe online they are asked for a phone number but they often forget to add the country code needed for international calls. You were asked to fix this issue in the database.
You've been given a data frame with national numbers and country codes named phone_nr_df
. Now you want to combine the country_code
