DESCRIPTION
ALGORITHM
- 1.
-
"a(1) = 16"
"b(i) = a(i) % 17 +d(i)", where d(i) is the decimal value of the hexdigit at position i.
"c(i) = b(i) % 16"
"a(i) = c(i-1) * 2", for i greater than 1
- 2.
- Beginning left for each i = 1..16, "a", "b", "c" are computed.
- 3.
- The check digit is the value for "d(16)" where "c(16)" equals 1.
- 4.
- The check digit is appended as hexadecimal value to the number.
METHODS
- is_valid($number)
-
Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and the last digit
is a valid check digit according to the algorithm given above.
Returns false otherwise,
- complete($number)
-
The check digit for $number is computed and concatenated to the end
of $number.
Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits and spaces.
- basenumber($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.
