In rOpenGov/sweidnumbr: Handling of Swedish Identity Numbers

Description

Calculates the control number for a Swedish personal/organisational identity number using the Luhn algorithm.

Usage

Arguments

multiplier	What should each element in id be multiplied with

Value

The control number (last digit in the personal identification number) calculated from id (as integer).

Examples

luhn_algo("121212121212", c(0,0,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2,0))
luhn_algo(  "121212121",  c(      2,1,2,1,2,1,2,1,2))

## If no multiplier, the default is 
## to find one that match the format of id
luhn_algo("121212121212")
luhn_algo("12121212121")
luhn_algo("1212121212")
luhn_algo("121212121")

## Also for multiple pin 
## (as long they are all of the same format)
luhn_algo(c("12121212121", "19850504333"))
## Not run: 
try(luhn_algo(c("12121212121", "850504333"))) ## Different formats should fail!

## End(Not run)
