CallingCode
On this page
A country's telephone code with its +: +44.
Use it for a dialling-code picker on a form. A whole number belongs in a PhoneNumber, which already contains its code.
Shape
One value, held as text in one set form, with no parts: +800.
Example
CallingCode("+44")CallingCode(raw) checks the text, and text that isn't one breaks the format rule.
text.parse(raw, as: CallingCode) reads one from text that comes from outside. Text that isn't one at all fails malformed, such as 44, +0 or +999.
