Credit Card Number Validation Code

Determine if a credit card number could be valid before submitting it for real-time online authentication. Based on ANSI X4.13, the LUHN formula, aka the Mod 10 algorithm is used to validate accurate credit card numbers. Heavily commented.

Basically, the alorithum takes each digit, from right to left and muliplies each second
digit by two. If the multiple is two-digits long (i.e.: 6 * 2 = 12) the two digits of
the multiple are then added together for a new number (1 + 2 = 3). You then add up the
string of numbers, both unaltered and new values and get a total sum. This sum is then
divided by 10 and the remainder should be zero if it is a valid credit card. Hense the
name Mod 10 or Modulus 10. */
