\s-1ALGORITHM\s0

1.

Beginning left every digit is weighted with 2, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1

2.

The weighted digits are added.

3.

The sum from step 2 is taken modulo 11.

4.

The number is valid if the sum from step 3 is zero (0).

\s-1METHODS\s0

is_valid($number)

Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and hyphens and the two digits in the middle are valid check digits according to the algorithm given above. Returns false otherwise,

complete($number)

The check digit for $number is computed and inserted into the middle of $number. Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits, hyphens and spaces.

basenumber($number)

Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid check digit. Return '' otherwise.

checkdigit($number)

Returns '' if $number is valid. Return undef otherwise.

\s-1EXPORT\s0

None by default.
