What is the algorithm for calculating the date checksum?
As written in Kernel/System/Ticket/Number/DateChecksum.pm: # The algorithm to calculate the checksum is derived from the one # Deutsche Bundesbahn (german railway company) uses for calculation # of the check digit of their vehikel numbering. # The checksum is calculated by alternately multiplying the digits # with 1 and 2 and adding the resulsts from left to right of the # vehikel number. The modulus to 10 of this sum is substracted from # 10. See: http://www.pruefziffernberechnung.de/F/Fahrzeugnummer.shtml # (german) Stefan -- Stefan Schmidt Email: jsj@jsj.dyndns.org
