I am using following code to implement Luhn algorithm for credit card check in c# language but could not get the output to generate the check sum its showing validity: kindl
I have tried this code which might help for other future folk:
public string GenerateLuhnNumber(string baseNumber)
{
if (!double.TryParse(baseNumber, out double baseNumberInt))
throw new InvalidWorkflowException($"Field contains non-numeric character(s) : {baseNumber}");
var step2 = string.Empty;
for (var index = baseNumber.Length - 1; index >= 0; index -= 2)
{
var doubleTheValue = (int.Parse(baseNumber[index].ToString())) * 2;
if (doubleTheValue > 9)
doubleTheValue = Math.Abs(doubleTheValue).ToString().Sum(c => Convert.ToInt32(c.ToString()));
step2 = step2.Insert(0, (index != 0 ? baseNumber[index - 1].ToString() : "") + doubleTheValue);
}
var step3 = Math.Abs(Convert.ToDouble(step2)).ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture).Sum(c => Convert.ToDouble(c.ToString())).ToString(CultureInfo.InvariantCulture);
var lastDigitStep3 = Convert.ToInt32(step3[step3.Length - 1].ToString());
string checkDigit = "0";
if (lastDigitStep3 != 0)
checkDigit = (10 - lastDigitStep3).ToString();
return baseNumber + checkDigit;
}
