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 of seven
      digits (optional preceded by a letter out of 'F', 'G', 'S', 'T') followed
      by a valid letter according to the algorithm given above.
    
Returns false otherwise,
 - complete($number)
 - The check letter for $number is computed and
      appended to the end of $number.
    
Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits and letters.
 - basenumber($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.
