CheckDigits.Net

CheckDigits.Net brings together in one library an extensive collection of different check digit algorithms. CheckDigits.Net has the goal that each algorithm supported be optimized, be resilient to malformed input and that memory allocations be minimized or eliminated completely. Benchmarks for each algorithm are provided to demonstrate performance over a range of values and the memory allocation (if any).

Benchmarks have shown that the optimized versions of the algorithms in CheckDigits.Net are up to 10X-50X faster than those in popular Nuget packages.

Check Digit Overview

Check digits are a useful tool for detecting human transcription errors. By embedding a check digit in a piece of information it is possible to detect common data entry errors early, often before performing more extensive and time consuming processing.

Typical errors that can be detected by check digit algorithms include:

  • Single digit transcription errors (any single digit in a value being entered incorrectly).
  • Two digit transposition errors (two adjacent digits being swapped, i.e. ab → ba).
  • Twin errors (two identical digits being replaced by another pair, i.e. aa → bb).
  • Two digit jump transpositions (two digits separated by one position being swapped, i.e. abc → cba).
  • Jump twin errors (two identical digits separated by one position being replaced by another pair, i.e. aba → cbc).

Check digit algorithms attempt to balance detection capabilities with the cost in execution time and/or the complexity to implement.

Note also that if a value has a valid check digit, it does not imply that the value is valid, only that the value was transcribed correctly. There may be other requirements that are specific to the type of value that could cause a value with a valid check digit to be considered incorrect/invalid.

ISO/IEC 7064 Algorithms

The ISO/IEC 7064 standard defines a family of algorithms capable of detecting a broad range of errors including all single character transcription errors as well as all or nearly all two character transposition errors, two character jump transposition errors, circular shift errors and double transcription errors (two separate single transcription errors in a single value). The algorithms are suitable for numeric strings, alphabetic strings, alphanumeric strings and can be extended to handle custom character domains beyond ASCII alphanumeric characters.

ISO/IEC 7064 algorithms fall into different categories. Pure system algorithms use a single modulus value and a radix value and can generate one or two check characters, depending on the algorithm. If a pure system algorithm generates a single check character, the check character produced will either be one of the valid input characters or a single supplementary character that is only valid as a check digit. Hybrid system algorithms use two modulus values, M and M+1, and generate a single check character that will be one of the valid input characters.

While CheckDigits.Net provides optimized implementations of all of the algorithms defined in the ISO/IEC 7064 standard, the standard is flexible enough to support the creation of algorithms for custom alphabets. For example, Annex B of the ISO/IEC 7064 standard demonstrates the creation of a system for the Danish alphabet which includes three additional characters.

CheckDigits.Net includes three classes to support custom alphabets:

  • Iso7064PureSystemSingleCharacterAlgorithm (generates a single check character, including a supplementary character)
  • Iso7064PureSystemDoubleCharacterAlgorithm (generates two check characters)
  • Iso7064HybridSystemAlgorithm (generates a single check character)

Refer to Using CheckDigits.Net for more information about using these classes.

The ISO/IEC 7064:2003 standard is available at https://www.iso.org/standard/31531.html

Using CheckDigits.Net

Add a reference to CheckDigits.Net to your project.

Obtain an instance of the desired check digit algorithm. Either create an instance by using new AlgorithmXyz() or using the static Algorithms class to get a lazily instantiated singleton instance of the desired algorithm.

Calculate a check digit for a value by invoking the TryCalculateCheckDigit method.

Validate a value that contains a check digit by invoking the Validate method.

Examples:

using CheckDigits.Net;

// Create a new instance of the Luhn algorithm.
var algorithm = new LuhnAlgorithm();

// Get a lazily instantiated singleton instance of the Luhn algorithm.
var lazy = Algorithms.Luhn;


// Calculate the check digit for a value that does not already contain a check digit.
var newValue = "123456789012345";
var successful = algorithm.TryCalculateCheckDigit(newValue, out var checkDigit);  // Returns true; checkDigit will equal '2'

// Validate a value that contains a check digit.
var toValidate = "1234567890123452";
var isValid = lazy.Validate(toValidate);    // Returns true

Custom Alphabets for ISO 7064

The three classes that allow the use of custom alphabets are:

  • Iso7064PureSystemSingleCharacterAlgorithm (generates a single check character, including a supplementary character)
  • Iso7064PureSystemDoubleCharacterAlgorithm (generates two check characters)
  • Iso7064HybridSystemAlgorithm (generates a single check character)

To use one of these classes you must first create an instance of a class that implements IAlphabet or ISupplementalCharacterAlphabet. Then you create an instance of the desired generic ISO 7064 class, supplying the algorithm details (including the alphabet) to the class constructor.

The custom Danish alphabet check algorithm covered in Annex B of the ISO/IEC 7064 standard, uses a pure system algorithm that generates two check characters and has a modulus = 29 and radix = 2.

Danish Alphabet Example

public class DanishAlphabet : IAlphabet
{
   // Additional characters:
   // diphthong AE (\u00C6) has value 26
   // slashed O (\u00D8) has value 27
   // A with diaeresis (\u00C4) has value 28
   private const String _validCharacters = "ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ\u00C6\u00D8\u00C4";

   public Int32 CharacterToInteger(Char ch)
      => ch switch
      {
         var x when x >= 'A' && x <= 'Z' => x - 'A',
         '\u00C6' => 26,
         '\u00D8' => 27,
         '\u00C4' => 28,
         _ => -1
      };

   public Char IntegerToCheckCharacter(Int32 checkDigit) => _validCharacters[checkDigit];
}

var checkAlgorithm = new Iso7064PureSystemDoubleCharacterAlgorithm(
    "Danish", 
    "Danish, modulus = 29, radix = 2", 
    29, 
    2, 
    new DanishAlphabet());

// Calculate the check digit for Danish word for sister (uses slashed O instead of i)
var str = "S\u00D8STER";
var successful = checkAlgorithm.TryCalculateCheckDigits(str, out var firstChar, out var secondChar);    // Returns true, firstChar = 'D', secondChar = 'A'


// Validate a value containing check digit(s).
var isValid = checkAlgorithm.Validate("S\u00D8STERDA");     // Returns true

Interfaces

A check digit algorithm is a class that implements two different interfaces. Every algorithm implements ICheckDigitAlgorithm which has properties for getting the algorithm name and algorithm description and a Validate method that accepts a string and returns a boolean value that indicates if the string contains a valid check digit.

Check digit algorithms that use a single character also implement ISingleCheckDigitAlgorithm which has a TryCalculateCheckDigit method that accepts a string value and an out parameter which will contain the calculated check digit or '\0' if it was not possible to calculate the check digit. TryCalculateCheckDigit also returns a boolean value that indicates if the check digit was calculated or not. Mal-formed input such as a null value, an empty string, a string of incorrect length or a string that contains characters that are not valid for the algorithm will return false instead of throwing an exception.

Check digit algorithms that use two character check digits also implement IDoubleCheckDigitAlgorithm. This interface has a TryCalculateCheckDigits method that has two output parameters, one for each check digit.

Note that ISingleCheckDigitAlgorithm and IDoubleCheckDigitAlgorithm are not implemented for algorithms for government issued identifiers (for example, UK NHS numbers and US NPI numbers) or values issued by a single authority (such as ABA Routing Transit Numbers).

The IAlphabet and ISupplementalCharacterAlphabet interfaces are used for ISO/IEC 7064 algorithms with custom alphabets. IAlphabet has two methods: CharacterToInteger, which maps a character in the value being processed to its integer equivalent and IntegerToCheckCharacter which maps a calculated check digit to its character equivalent. ISupplementalCharacterAlphabet extends IAlphabet by adding the CheckCharacterToInteger method which maps a check character to its integer equivalent. ISupplementalCharacterAlphabet is only used by Iso7064PureSystemSingleCharacterAlgorithm.

The ABA RTN algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - ninth digit
  • Value length - 9 characters
  • Class name - AbaRtnAlgorithm

Alphanumeric MOD 97-10 Algorithm

Description

The Alphanumeric MOD 97-10 algorithm uses a variation of the ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 97-10 algorithm where alphabetic characters (A-Z) are mapped to integers (10-35) before calculating the check digit. The algorithm is case insensitive and lowercase letters are mapped to their uppercase equivalent before conversion to integers.

Details
  • Valid characters - alphanumeric characters ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'Z')
  • Check digit size - two characters
  • Check digit value - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) characters when validating
  • Class name - AlphanumericMod97_10Algorithm
Common Applications
  • Legal Entity Identifier (LEI)
  • Universal Loan Identifier (ULI)

CUSIP Algorithm

Description

The CUSIP (Committee on Uniform Security Identification Procedures) algorithm is used for nine character alphanumeric codes that identify North American financial securities. The algorithm has similarities with both the Luhn algorithm and the ISIN algorithm.

The CUSIP algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Damm Algorithm

Description

The Damm algorithm was first described by H. Michael Damm in 2004. It is similar to the Verhoeff algorithm in that it can detect all single digit transcription errors and all two digit transposition errors and that it uses a precomputed table instead of modulus operations to calculate the check digit. Unlike the Verhoeff algorithm, the Damm algorithm uses a single quasigroup table of order 10 instead of the multiple tables used by Verhoeff. The implementation of the Damm algorithm provided by CheckDigits.Net uses the table generated from the quasigroup specified on page 111 of Damm's doctoral dissertation.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Class name - DammAlgorithm

FIGI Algorithm

Description

The FIGI (Financial Instrument Global Identifier) algorithm is used for 12 character values issued by Bloomberg L.P. that are used to identify a variety of financial instruments including common stock, futures, derivatives, bonds and more. The algorithm is a variation of the Luhn algorithm and has the same weaknesses as the Luhn algorithm with digit characters. But like the ISIN algorithm (which also extends the Luhn algorithm to support alphanumeric strings), the FIGI algorithm has additional weaknesses when detecting errors involving alphabetic characters. Each alphabetic character has a digit character and at least one other alphabetic character that can be freely substituted for that character and which will result in the same check digit being calculated. This means that single character transcription errors involving those characters can not be detected by the algorithm.

The FIGI algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9') and upper case consonants ('BCDFGHJKLMNPQRSTVWXYZ')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - character position 12 (1-based)
  • Value length - 12
  • Class name - FigiAlgorithm

IBAN Algorithm

Description

The IBAN (International Bank Account Number) algorithm uses a variation of the ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 97-10 algorithm where alphabetic characters (A-Z) are mapped to integers (10-35) before calculating the check digit. Additionally, the first four characters (2 character country code and 2 decimal check digits) are moved to the end of the string before calculating the check digit.

Note that this implementation only confirms that the length of the value is sufficient to calculate the check digits (min length = 5) and that check digit characters in positions 3 & 4 are valid for the string. All other IBAN checks (the leading two characters indicating a valid country code, the check digit positions only contain digits, maximum length, country specific check digits contained in account number, etc.) are left to the application developer.

Details
  • Valid characters - alphanumeric characters ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'Z')
  • Check digit size - two characters
  • Check digit value - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - character positions 3 & 4 (1-based) when validating
  • Value minimum length - 5
  • Class name - IbanAlgorithm

ICAO 9303 Algorithm

Description

The ICAO 9303 (International Civil Aviation Organization) algorithm is a modulus 10 algorithm used in the field of MRTODTs (Machine Readable Official Travel Documents). The algorithm uses weights 7, 3, and 1 with the weights applied starting from the left most character.

The algorithm can not detect single character transcription errors where the difference between the correct character and the incorrect character is 10, i.e. 0 → A, B->L, and vice versa. Nor can the algorithm detect two character transposition errors where the difference between the transposed characters is a multiple of 5, i.e. 27 ↔ 72, D8 ↔ 8D, BL ↔ LB).

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9'), upper case letters ('A' - 'Z') and a filler character ('<').
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Class name - Icao9303Algorithm

ICAO 9303 Document Size TD1 Algorithm

The ICAO 9303 (International Civil Aviation Organization) specification for Machine Readable Travel Documents Size TD1 uses multiple check digits in the machine readable zone of the document. The first line of the machine readable zone contains a field for the document number (including a possible extended document number) and associated check digit. The second line of the machine readable zone contains fields for date of birth, date of expiry and associated check digits for each field. The individual field check digits and the composite check digit are all calculated using theICAO 9303 Algorithm.

The machine readable zone of a Size TD1 document consists of three lines of 30 characters. The value passed to the Validate method should contain all lines of data concatenated together. You can specify how the lines are separated in the concatenated value by setting the LineSeparator property of the algorithm class. The three values are None (no line separator is used and the 31st character of the value is the first character of the second line), Crlf (the Windows line separator, i.e. a carriage return character followed by a line feed character - '\r\n') and Lf (the Unix line separator, i.e a line feed character - '\n').The default LineSeparator is None.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD1 Algorithm will validate the check digits of the three fields (document number, date of birth and date of expiry) as well as the composite check digit. If any of the check digits fail validation then the Validate method will return false.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD1 algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9'), upper case letters ('A' - 'Z') and a filler character ('<').
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - trailing (right-most) character of individual fields, trailing character of second line for composite check digit
  • Value length - three lines of 30 characters plus additional line separator characters as specified by the LineSeparator property
  • Class name - Icao9303SizeTD1Algorithm

ICAO 9303 Document Size TD2 Algorithm

Description

The ICAO 9303 (International Civil Aviation Organization) specification for Machine Readable Travel Documents Size TD2 uses multiple check digits in the machine readable zone of the document. The second line of the machine readable zone contains fields for document number (including a possible extended document number), date of birth and date of expiry and associated check digits for each field. The individual field check digits and the composite check digit are all calculated using theICAO 9303 Algorithm.

The machine readable zone of a Size TD2 document consists of two lines of 36 characters. The value passed to the Validate method should contain all lines of data concatenated together. You can specify how the lines are separated in the concatenated value by setting the LineSeparator property of the algorithm class. The three values are None (no line separator is used and the 37th character of the value is the first character of the second line), Crlf (the Windows line separator, i.e. a carriage return character followed by a line feed character - '\r\n') and Lf (the Unix line separator, i.e a line feed character - '\n').The default LineSeparator is None.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD2 Algorithm will validate the check digits of the three fields (document number, date of birth and date of expiry) as well as the composite check digit. If any of the check digits fail validation then the Validate method will return false.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD2 algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9'), upper case letters ('A' - 'Z') and a filler character ('<').
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - trailing (right-most) character of individual fields, trailing character of second line for composite check digit
  • Value length - two lines of 36 characters plus additional line separator characters as specified by the LineSeparator property
  • Class name - Icao9303SizeTD2Algorithm

https://www.icao.int/publications/Documents/9303_p6_cons_en.pdf

ICAO 9303 Document Size TD3 Algorithm

Description

The ICAO 9303 (International Civil Aviation Organization) specification for Machine Readable Passports and other Size TD3 travel documents uses multiple check digits in the machine readable zone of the document. The second line of the machine readable zone contains fields for passport number, date of birth, date of expiry and an optional personal number field with each field having a check digit calculated using the ICAO 9303 Algorithm. In addition, the machine readable zone contains a final composite check digit calculated for all four of the above fields and their check digits. The composite check digit is also calculated using the ICAO 9303 Algorithm.

The machine readable zone of a Size TD3 document consists of two lines of 44 characters. The value passed to the Validate method should contain both lines of data concatenated together. You can specify how the lines are separated in the concatenated value by setting the LineSeparator property of the algorithm class. The three values are None (no line separator is used and the 45th character of the value is the first character of the second line), Crlf (the Windows line separator, i.e. a carriage return character followed by a line feed character - '\r\n') and Lf (the Unix line separator, i.e a line feed character - '\n').The default LineSeparator is None.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD3 Algorithm will validate the check digits of the four fields (passport number, date of birth, date of expiry and optional personal number) as well as the composite check digit. If any of the check digits fail validation then the Validate method will return false.

The ICAO 9303 Document Size TD3 algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9'), upper case letters ('A' - 'Z') and a filler character ('<').
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - trailing (right-most) character of individual fields, trailing character of entire string for composite check digit
  • Value length - two lines of 44 characters plus additional line separator characters as specified by the LineSeparator property
  • Class name - Icao9303SizeTD3Algorithm

ICAO 9303 Machine Readable Visa Algorithm

Description

The ICAO 9303 (International Civil Aviation Organization) specification for Machine Readable Visas uses multiple check digits in the machine readable zone of the document. The second line of the machine readable zone contains fields for document number, date of birth and date of expiry and associated check digits for each field. (Unlike other ICAO 9303 TD1, TD2 or TD3 documents, no composite check digit is used.) The individual field check digits are all calculated using theICAO 9303 Algorithm.

Machine Readable Visas have two formats: MRV-A and MRV-B. The MRV-A format uses two lines of 44 characters while the MRV-B format uses two lines of 36 characters. The individual fields in the second line of the machine readable zone are located in the same character positions regardless of the format. The Validate method can validate either format

The machine readable zone of a Machine Readable Visa consists of two lines of 36 characters. The value passed to the Validate method should contain all lines of data concatenated together. You can specify how the lines are separated in the concatenated value by setting the LineSeparator property of the algorithm class. The three values are None (no line separator is used and the 37th character of the value is the first character of the second line), Crlf (the Windows line separator, i.e. a carriage return character followed by a line feed character - '\r\n') and Lf (the Unix line separator, i.e a line feed character - '\n').The default LineSeparator is None.

The ICAO 9303 Machine Readable Visa Algorithm will validate the check digits of the three fields (document number, date of birth and date of expiry). If any of the check digits fail validation then the Validate method will return false. In addition, if the value is not the correct length (two lines of either 44 or 36 characters, plus line separator characters matching the LineSeparator property) then the method will return false.

The ICAO 9303 Machine Readable Visa algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9'), upper case letters ('A' - 'Z') and a filler character ('<').
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - trailing (right-most) character of individual fields
  • Value length - two lines of either 44 characters (MRV-A) or 36 characters (MRV-B), plus additional line separator characters as specified by the LineSeparator property
  • Class name - Icao9303MachineReadableVisaAlgorithm

ISAN Algorithm

Description

The ISAN (International Standard Audiovisual Number) algorithm uses a variation of the ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 37,36 algorithm and can have either one or two check characters. A full ISAN value consists of 12 hexadecimal digits for the "root" segment, 4 hexadecimal digits for the "episode" segment, an alphanumeric check character calculated for the 16 characters of the root/episode segments and optionally, 8 hexadecimal digits for the version segment and an alphanumeric check character calculated for the 24 characters of the root/episode/version segments. Per https://www.isan.org/docs/isan_check_digit_calculation_v2.0.pdf, both check characters must be correct if the value includes a version segment.

CheckDigits.Net can validate either unformatted ISAN values consisting only of hexadecimal digits and alphanumeric check characters or ISAN values that have been formatted for human readability.

To validate unformatted root+version ISAN values, use the Validate method. The Validate method only checks 26 character unformatted ISAN root+version values. (To check 17 character root/episode only ISAN values, use the ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 37,36 algorithm directly.)

To validate formatted ISAN values, either root/episode values or root/episode/version values, use the ValidateFormatted method. The ValidateFormatted method will check both the format of the value ("ISAN " prefix plus dash characters that separate the value into 4 character groups) and the check character(s) in the value.

An example formatted root/episode ISAN value is ISAN 0000-0000-C36D-002B-K. An example formatted root/episode/version ISAN value is ISAN 0000-0000-C36D-002B-K-0000-0000-E.

Details
  • Valid characters - hexadecimal characters ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'F')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - alphanumeric characters ('0' - '9', 'A' - 'Z')
  • Check digit location - the 17th non-format character (and the 26th non-format character for root+version values)
  • Class name - IsanAlgorithm

ISIN Algorithm

Description

The ISIN (International Securities Identification Number) algorithm uses a variation of the Luhn algorithm and has all of the capabilities of the Luhn algorithm, including the ability to detect all single digit (or character) transcription errors and most two digit transposition errors except 09 → 90 and vice versa.

The algorithm has significant weaknesses. Transpositions of two letters cannot be detected. Additionally, transpositions of a digit character and the letters B, M or X cannot be detected (because B is converted to 11, M to 22 and X to 33 and when combined with another digit, the result is a jump transposition that the Luhn algorithm cannot detect).

Modulus11 Algorithm

Description

The Modulus11 algorithm uses modulus 11 and each digit is weighted by its position in the value, starting from the right-most digit. Prior to the existence of the Verhoeff algorithm and the Damm algorithm it was popular because it was able to detect two digit transposition errors while using only a single character. However, because it used modulus 11, the check digit could not be a single decimal digit. Commonly an 'X' character was used when the modulus operation resulted in a value of 10. This meant that identifiers that used the Modulus11 algorithm could not be stored as numbers and instead must be strings.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - either decimal digit ('0' - '9') or an uppercase 'X'
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Max length - 9 characters when generating a check digit; 10 characters when validating
  • Class name - Modulus11Algorithm

NHS Algorithm

Description

UK National Health Service (NHS) identifiers use a variation of the Modulus 11 algorithm. However, instead of generating 11 possible values for the check digit, the NHS algorithm does not allow a remainder of 10 (the 'X' character used by the Modulus 11 algorithm). Any possible NHS number that would generate a remainder of 10 is not allowed and those numbers are not issued. This means that the check digit for a NHS number remains '0' - '9'. The NHS algorithm retains all error detecting capabilities of the Modulus 11 algorithm (detecting all single digit transcription errors and all two digit transposition errors).

The NHS algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Value length - 10 characters

NOID Check Digit Algorithm

Description

The NOID (Nice Opaque Identifier) Check Digit Algorithm is used by systems that deal with persistent identifiers (for example, ARK (Archival Resource Key) identifiers). The algorithm can detect single character transcription errors and two character transposition errors for values that are less than 29 characters in length. If the value is 29 character in length or greater then the algorithm is slightly less capable. The algorithm operates on lower case betanumeric characters (i.e. alphanumeric characters, minus vowels, including 'y', and the letter 'l'). The use of betanumeric characters reduces the likelihood that an identifier would equal a recognizable word or that the digits 0 or 1 could be confused for the letters 'o' or 'l'.

Details
  • Valid characters - betanumeric characters ('0123456789bcdfghjkmnpqrstvwxz')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - betanumeric characters ('0123456789bcdfghjkmnpqrstvwxz')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Class name - NcdAlgorithm

NPI Algorithm

Description

US National Provider Identifiers (NPI) use the Luhn algorithm to calculate the check digit located in the trailing (right-most) position. However, before calculating, the value is prefixed with a constant "80840" and the check digit is calculated using the entire 15 digit string. The resulting check digit has all the capabilities of the base Luhn algorithm (detecting all single digit transcription errors and most two digit transposition errors except 09 → 90 and vice versa as well as most twin errors (i.e. 11 ↔ 44) except 22 ↔ 55, 33 ↔ 66 and 44 ↔ 77.

(You can create and validate NPI check digits using the standard Luhn algorithm by first prefixing your value with "80840". However, CheckDigits.Net's implementation of the NPI algorithm handles the prefix internally and without allocating an extra string.)

The NPI algorithm only supports validation of check digits and does not support calculation of check digits.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating

Verhoeff Algorithm

Description

The Verhoeff algorithm was the first algorithm using a single decimal check digit that was capable of detecting all single digit transcription errors and all two digit transposition errors. It was first described by Jacobus Verhoeff in 1969. Prior to Verhoeff it was believed that it was not possible to define an algorithm that used a single decimal check digit that could detect both all single digit transcription errors and all two digit transposition errors. Verhoeff's algorithm does not use modulus operations and instead uses a dihedral group (typically implemented as a set of lookup tables). Additionally, Verhoeff's algorithm can detect many, though not all, twin errors, two digit jump transpositions and jump twin errors.

Details
  • Valid characters - decimal digits ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - decimal digit ('0' - '9')
  • Check digit location - assumed to be the trailing (right-most) character when validating
  • Class name - VerhoeffAlgorithm

Description

The VIN (Vehicle Identification Number) algorithm is used on the VIN of vehicles sold in North America (US and Canada). The check digit is the 9th character of the 17 character value. Upper-case alphabetic characters (except 'I', 'O' and 'Q') are allowed in the value and must be transliterated to integer values before weighting, summing and calculating sum modulus 11.

  • Check digit size - one character
  • Check digit value - either decimal digit ('0' - '9') or an uppercase 'X'

Benchmarks (.Net 8)

The methodology for the general algorithms is to generate values for the benchmarks by taking substrings of lengths 3, 6, 9, etc. from the same randomly generated source string. For the TryCalculateCheckDigit or TryCalculateCheckDigits methods the substring is used as is. For the Validate method benchmarks the substring is appended with the check character or characters that make the test value valid for the algorithm being benchmarked.

For value specific algorithms, three separate values that are valid for the algorithm being benchmarked are used.

Validate Method

General Numeric Algorithms

All algorithms use a single check digit except ISO/IEC 7064 MOD 97-10 which uses two check digits.

Note that the Modulus10_1, Modulus10_2 and Modulus11 algorithms have a maximum length of 10 (including the check digit) for values being validated so their benchmarks do not cover lengths greater than 10.
