NAME¶
CheckDigits::M11_009 - compute check digits NRIC (SG)
SYNOPSIS¶
use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
$nric = CheckDigits('nric_sg');
if ($nric->is_valid('S1234567D')) {
# do something
}
$cn = $nric->complete('S1234567');
# $cn = 'S1234567D'
$cd = $nric->checkdigit('S1234567D');
# $cd = 'D'
$bn = $nric->basenumber('S1234567D');
# $bn = 'S1234567';
DESCRIPTION¶
ALGORITHM¶
- 1.
- Beginning left every digit is weighted with 2, 7, 6, 5, 4,
3, 2
- 2.
- The weighted digits are added.
- 3.
- The sum from step 2 is taken modulo 11.
- 4.
- The checkdigit is 11 minus the sum from step 3 converted to
a character according to the following table:
@cd = ('','A','B','C','D','E','F','G','H','I','Z','J', );
METHODS¶
- is_valid($number)
- Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and
hyphens and the two digits in the middle are valid check digits according
to the algorithm given above.
Returns false otherwise,
- complete($number)
- The check digit for $number is computed and inserted into
the middle of $number.
Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not
consist solely of digits, hyphens and spaces.
- basenumber($number)
- Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid
check digit.
Return '' otherwise.
- checkdigit($number)
- Returns '' if $number is valid.
Return undef otherwise.
EXPORT¶
None by default.
