"""ID number (Mauritian national identifier).

The Mauritian national ID number is a unique 14 alphanumeric identifier
assigned at birth to identify individuals. It is displayed on the National
Identity Card.

The number consists of one alphabetic character and thirteen digits:

* the first character of the person's surname at birth
* 2 digits for day of birth
* 2 digits for month of birth
* 2 digits for year of birth
* 6 digit unique id
* a check digit
