=head1 NAME

CheckDigits::MXX_002 - compute check digits for CAS

=head1 SYNOPSIS

  use Algorithm::CheckDigits;

  $cas = CheckDigits('cas');

  if ($cas->is_valid('1333-74-0')) {
	# do something
  }

  $cn = $cas->complete('1333-74-');
  # $cn = '1333-74-0'

  $cd = $cas->checkdigit('1333-74-0');
  # $cd = '0'

  $bn = $cas->basenumber('1333-74-0');
  # $bn = '1333-74-'
  
=head1 DESCRIPTION

=head2 ALGORITHM

=over 4

=item 1

Beginning right with the second digit all digits are weighted
ascending starting with 1.

=item 2

The sum of those products is computed.

=item 3

The checksum is the last digit of the sum from step 2 (modulo 10).

=back

=head2 METHODS

=over 4

=item is_valid($number)

Returns true only if C<$number> consists solely of numbers and the last digit
is a valid check digit according to the algorithm given above.

Returns false otherwise,

=item complete($number)

The check digit for C<$number> is computed and concatenated to the end
of C<$number>.

Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if C<$number>
does not consist solely of digits and spaces.

=item basenumber($number)

Returns the basenumber of C<$number> if C<$number> has a valid check
digit.

Return '' otherwise.

=item checkdigit($number)

Returns the checkdigit of C<$number> if C<$number> has a valid check
digit.

Return '' otherwise.

=back

=head2 EXPORT

None by default.

=head1 THANKS

Aaron W. West pointed me to a fault in the computing of the check
digit.

HERMIER Christophe made me aware that CAS is now assigning 10-digit CAS
