UPCA
11 numbers are transferred for the UPCA code. The 12. digit represents the
check number. The even figures of the information have a factor of "3", the
uneven figures a factor of "1". Counting begins from the left. The resulting
cross sum is divided by 10. The remaining figure is subtracted from the modul
(10). If the remainder is "0", the check number is also "0".
Example
For remainder “0” the check number is also “0”.
UPCE
