It will look for exactly 10 digits in a row.

These exact 10 digits can appear anywhere in the line.

If my above statement correct, then i should get the 8 digit mobile number in below select statement, but i am getting 10 and 8 digit number. it suppose to look for 0 to 9 and give 8 digit mobile number. please correct me if i am wrong.
It will find 8 digits inside 10 digits, the same way it will find 'gas' inside 'gasoline'.

To find only 8 digits you must be more specific. Perhaps

Code:
grep ' [0-9]{8}$'

to tell it there must be a space in front, and that the string must end at the end of the line.

NAME
CheckDigits::M11_011 - compute check digits for VAT Registration Number (NL) SYNOPSIS
use Algorithm::CheckDigits; $ustid = CheckDigits('ustid_nl'); if ($ustid->is_valid('123456782')) { # do something } if ($ustid->is_valid('123456782B04')) { # do something } $cn = $ustid->complete('12345678'); # $cn = '123456782' $cn = $ustid->complete('12345678.B04'); # $cn = '123456782B04' $cd = $ustid->checkdigit('123456782'); # $cd = '2' $cd = $ustid->checkdigit('123456782B04'); # $cd = '2' $bn = $ustid->basenumber('123456782'); # $bn = '12345678'; $bn = $ustid->basenumber('123456782B04'); # $bn = '12345678.B04'; DESCRIPTION
This VATRN has 12 "digits", the third last must be a B, the fourth last is the checkdigit. I don't know anything about the meaning of the last two digits. You may use the whole VATRN or only the first eight digits to compute the checkdigit with this module. ALGORITHM 1. Beginning right with the digit before the checkdigit all digits are weighted with their position. I.e. the digit before the checkdigit is multiplied with 2, the next with 3 and so on. 2. The weighted digits are added. 3. The sum from step 2 is taken modulo 11. 4. If the sum from step 3 is 10, the number is discarded. METHODS is_valid($number) Returns true only if $number consists solely of numbers and hyphens and the two digits in the middle are valid check digits according to the algorithm given above. Returns false otherwise, complete($number) The check digit for $number is computed and inserted into the middle of $number. Returns the complete number with check digit or '' if $number does not consist solely of digits, hyphens and spaces. basenumber($number) Returns the basenumber of $number if $number has a valid check digit. Return '' otherwise. checkdigit($number) Returns the check digits of $number if $number has valid check digits. Return '' otherwise. EXPORT None by default. SEE ALSO
