Algorithm::CheckDigits::M11_002(3pm)

NAME

CheckDigits::M11_002 - compute check digits for PZN (DE)

SYNOPSIS

  use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
  $pzn = CheckDigits('pzn');
  if ($pzn->is_valid('4877800')) {
        # do something
  }
  $cn = $pzn->complete('487780');
  # $cn = '4877800'
  $cd = $pzn->checkdigit('4877800');
  # $cd = '0'
  $bn = $pzn->basenumber('4877800');
  # $bn = '487780'

DESCRIPTION

ALGORITHM

1.: From left to right beginning with the first position all digits are multiplied with 2,3,4,...

2.: The sum of all products is computed.

3.: The checkdigit ist the sum of step 2 taken modulo 11.

4.: If the checkdigit is '10' the whole number is not taken as a PZN.

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.
