Looking at the member list, there are alot of interesting names, some unique, some bizarre, and some that are just plain. How did you come by your name? Why did you choose your label?

Hi,
In linux we have exit status variable ($?) and status which tells whether last command was successfull or not. Can someone please tell me what is difference between both. Both tells whether command was successful or not, Any particular difference between them?
Thanks in Advance.
Thanks... (3 Replies)
I think both write at the end of the file ......
but is there a sharp difference between those 2 instruction .....
thank you
this is my 3rd question today forgive me :D (1 Reply)
In the awk I am trying to subtract the difference $3-$2 of each matching $4 before the first _ (underscore) and print that value in $13.
I think the awk will do that, but added comments. What I am not sure off is how to add a line or lines that will add sum each matching $13 value and put it in... (2 Replies)

CheckDigits::M11_001(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation CheckDigits::M11_001(3pm)NAME
CheckDigits::M11_001 - compute check digits for ISBN, ISSN, VAT RN (PT), HKID (HK), Wagon number (BR), NHS (GB), VAT (SL)
SYNOPSIS
use Algorithm::CheckDigits;
$isbn = CheckDigits('isbn');
if ($isbn->is_valid('3-88229-192-3')) {
# do something
}
$cn = $isbn->complete('3-88229-192-');
# $cn = '3-88229-192-3'
$cd = $isbn->checkdigit('3-88229-192-3');
# $cd = '3'
$bn = $isbn->basenumber('3-88229-192-3');
# $bn = '3-88229-192-'
DESCRIPTION
ALGORITHM
1. The sequence of digits is processed right to left. Every digit is multiplied with their position in the sequence (i.e. the digit left
to the check digit has the weight 2 then 3 etc.).
With a Hongkong ID (hkid) the leftmost char is replaced with its position in the alphabet and then multiplied with 8 (its weight).
2. The sum of all products is computed.
3. The sum of step 2 is taken modulo 11.
4. The checkdigit is the difference of the sum from step 3 to eleven under the following conditions:
isbn,issn
If the difference is 10, the check digit is 'X'.
If the difference is 11, the check digit is 0.
ustid_pt
If the difference is greater then 9, the check digit is '0'.
hkid If the difference is 10, the check digit is 'A'.
If the difference is 11, the check digit is 0.
wagonnr_br
If the difference is 10, the check digit is 0.
If the difference is 11, the check digit is 1.
nhs_gb If the difference is 10, the number would not be taken.
If the difference is 11, the check digit is 0.
vat_sl This is a little bit unclear, don't trust on the method for this type.
METHODS
is_valid($number)
Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and the last digit is a valid check digit according to the algorithm given
above.
Returns false otherwise,
complete($number)
The check digit for $number is computed and concatenated to the end of $number.
Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits and spaces.
basenumber($number)
Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid check digit.
Return '' otherwise.
checkdigit($number)
Returns the checkdigit of $number if $number has a valid check digit.
Return '' otherwise.
EXPORT
None by default.
