# do something
}

# $cd = '7'

# $bn = '762220000460'
DESCRIPTION
ALGORITHM
- 1.
- Beginning right all numbers are weighted alternatively 1 and 3 (that is the check digit is weighted 1).
- 2.
- The sum of all products is computed.
- 3.
- The sum of step 3 ist taken modulo 10.
- 4.
- The check digit is the difference between 10 and the number from step 3.
To validate the total of the digits of all numbers inclusive check digit taken modulo 10 must be 0.
METHODS
- is_valid($number)
-
Returns true only if $number consists solely of digits, spaces and hyphen
and the last digit is a valid check digit according to the algorithm given
above.
Returns false otherwise,
- complete($number)
-
The check digit for $number is computed and concatenated to the end
of $number.
Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits, spaces and hyphen.
- basenumber($number)
-
Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid check
digit.
Return '' otherwise.
- checkdigit($number)
-
Returns the checkdigit of $number if $number has a valid check
digit.
Return '' otherwise.
