| * Luhn Algorithm: | |
| * | |
| * - Given a number as input | |
| * - Split the number into two parts: | |
| * - the last digit (called the "check digit") | |
| * - all other digits (called the "payload digits") | |
| * | |
| * On the payload digits, run this logic: | |
| * - Starting from the last digit and working backwards, double every other digit | |
| * - If doubling a digit produces a number >= 10, replace it with the sum of its digits | |
| * - Sum all the digits | |
| * - Take the remainder of dividing this sum by 10 | |
| * - Subtract the remainder from 10 | |
| * | |
| * If the number you receive matches the "check digit", the input is valid | |
| * | |
