\s-1ALGORITHM\s0

1.

From left to right all digits are multiplied with their position in the sequence.

2.

The sum of all products is computed.

3.

The sum of step 2 is taken modulo 11. The checkdigit is the last digit of the result.

\s-1METHODS\s0

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.

\s-1EXPORT\s0

None by default.
