27 ALGORITHM
28 1. Right to left all digits are permutated according to a permutation
29 table.
30
31 2. The permutated digits are combined using a dieeder table. The first
32 with the second, the result with the third, this result with the
33 fourth and so on.
34
35 3. The result of the last combination in the dieeder table is in such
36 a way combined that the result is 0 (zero). The number used for
37 this combination is the checksum.
38
39 For details look at the source.

41 METHODS
42 is_valid($number)
43 Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and the
44 last digit is a valid check digit according to the algorithm given
45 above.
46
47 Returns false otherwise,
48
49 complete($number)
50 The check digit for $number is computed and concatenated to the end
51 of $number.
52
53 Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does
54 not consist solely of digits.
55
56 basenumber($number)
57 Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid check
58 digit.
59
60 Return '' otherwise.
61
62 checkdigit($number)
63 Returns the checkdigit of $number if $number has a valid check
64 digit.
65
66 Return '' otherwise.
67
68 EXPORT
69 None by default.

75 Jonathan Peters wrote Algorithm::Verhoeff from which I took the routine
76 to compute the checkdigits.
