# Dauphin

Decode Australian phone numbers to integers

## Rationale

When dealing with mobile phone numbers in R they are often represented as

character vectors. However, this comes this with two problems: (1) character

vectors use excessive memory and (2) it necessitates a standard format to 

filter and match them.

`dauphin` attempts to solve these problems: using (32-bit) `integer` vectors

to store Australian mobile and landline numbers. 

```r

library(dauphin)

mobs <- c("0407 000 123", "0407000123", "61407 000 123", "+61 407 000 123")

dauphin_mobile(mobs)

```

If your data contains both landline and mobile (for the same client), you can

use `dauphin_mobile_landline` to ensure they are entered in the correct field.

```r

dauphin_mobile_landline(c("0412 345 678", "6532 1234"), 

                        c("03 6533 4444", "0400 111 222"), 

                        default_area_code = 3)

```

An unexported function `format_dauphin_mobile` is also temporarily available

for a standard character format.
