Algorithm::CheckDigits - Perl extension to generate and test check digitsSYNOPSIS¶
perl -MAlgorithm::CheckDigits -e Algorithm::CheckDigits::print_methods
or
use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
@ml = Algorithm::CheckDigits->method_list();
$isbn = CheckDigits('ISBN');
if ($isbn->is_valid('3-930673-48-7')) {
# do something
}
$cn = $isbn->complete('3-930673-48'); # $cn = '3-930673-48-7'
$cd = $isbn->checkdigit('3-930673-48-7'); # $cd = '7'
$bn = $isbn->basenumber('3-930673-48-7'); # $bn = '3-930673-48'
ABSTRACT¶
This module provides a number of methods to test and generate check digits. For more information have a look at the web site www.pruefziffernberechnung.de (german).SUBROUTINES/METHODS¶
CheckDigits($method)¶
Returns an object of an appropriate Algorithm::CheckDigits class for the given algorithm.Dies with an error message if called with an unknown algorithm.
See below for the available algorithms. Every object understands the following methods:
- is_valid($number)
- Returns true or false if $number contains/contains no valid check digit.
- complete($number)
- Returns a string representation of $number completed with the appropriate check digit.
- checkdigit($number)
- Extracts the check digit from $number if $number contains a valid check digit.
- basenumber($number)
- Extracts the basenumber from $number if $number contains a valid check digit.
Algorithm::CheckDigits::method_list()¶
Returns a list of known methods for check digit computation.Algorithm::CheckDigits::print_methods()¶
Returns a list of known methods for check digit computation.You may use the following to find out which methods your version of Algorithm::CheckDigits provides and where to look for further information.

Petri Oksanen made me aware that CheckDigits('IMEI') would invoke no test at all since there was no entry for this in the methods hash.COPYRIGHT AND LICENSE¶
