```

Get key values pairs

$countries = CountriesArray::get( 'alpha2', 'name' ); // returns alpha2->name array
$countries = CountriesArray::get( 'num', 'alpha3' ); // return numeric-codes->alpha3 array
$countries = CountriesArray::get( 'num', 'name' ); // return numeric-codes->name array

```

$countries = CountriesArray::get( null, 'alpha2' ); // return array of alpha2 codes

```

Get 2d array

$countries = CountriesArray::get2d( null, 'name' ); // return array of country names
$countries = CountriesArray::get2d( null, 'alpha2' ); // return array of alpha2 codes

```

Get countries filtered by continent

```
$countries = CountriesArray::getFromContinent( 'alpha2', 'name', 'Africa' ); // returns alpha2->name array of countries from Africa
$countries = CountriesArray::getFromContinent( 'num', 'alpha3', 'Asia' ); // return numeric-codes->alpha3 array of countries from Asia
$countries = CountriesArray::getFromContinent( 'num', 'name', 'Europe' ); // return numeric-codes->name array of countries from Europe

```

\##IMP Note Do not use ISD code(isd) and continent as key fields, as there are multiple records for them
