Algorithm::CheckDigits::MBase_0023pm

Compute check digits for blood bags (de), bzue (de), vat registration number (de)

Usage

  use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
  $bb = CheckDigits('blutbeutel');
  if ($bb->is_valid('2761011234567893')) {
        # do something
  }
  $cn = $bb->complete('276101123456789');
  # $cn = '2761011234567893'
  $cd = $bb->checkdigit('2761011234567893');
  # $cd = '3'
  $bn = $bb->basenumber('2761011234567893');
  # $bn = '276101123456789';

Overview

Algorithm

1.: Start with values P = 10, S = 0.

Beginning left you do the following for all digits

1.: S = (P + digit) modulo 10

2.: If S is 0 then S = 10.

3.: P = (2 * S) modulo 11

3.: The check digit is (11 - P) modulo 10.

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.

Export

None by default.
