"""The Luhn and Luhn mod N algorithms.

The Luhn algorithm is used to detect most accidental errors in various
identification numbers.

>>> validate('7894')
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
InvalidChecksum: ...
>>> checksum('7894')
6
>>> calc_check_digit('7894')
'9'
>>> validate('78949')
'78949'

An alternative alphabet can be provided to use the Luhn mod N algorithm.
The default alphabet is '0123456789'.

>>> validate('1234', alphabet='0123456789abcdef')
Traceback (most recent call last):
    ...
InvalidChecksum: ...
>>> checksum('1234', alphabet='0123456789abcdef')
