Algorithm::CheckDigits::MXX_0043pm

Compute check digits for vat rn (at)

Usage

  use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
  $vat = CheckDigits('ustid_at');
  if ($vat->is_valid('U13585627')) {
        # do something
  }
  $cn = $vat->complete('U1358562');
  # $cn = 'U13585627'
  $cd = $vat->checkdigit('U13585627');
  # $cd = '7'
  $bn = $vat->basenumber('U13585627');
  # $bn = 'U1358562'

Overview

Algorithm

1.

Beginning right all numbers before the check digit are weighted alternatively 1 and 2.

2.

The total of the digits of all products is computed and then subtracted from 96.

3.

The check digit is the sum of step 3 taken 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.
