Is my barcode valid?

Question

An EAN-8 barcode includes 7 digits of information and an 8th checksum digit.

The checksum is calculated by multiplying the digits by 3 and 1 alternately, adding the results, and subtracting from the next multiple of 10.

For example, given the digits 2103498:

Digit:        2   1   0   3   4   9   8
Multiplier:   3   1   3   1   3   1   3
Result:       6   1   0   3  12   9  24

The sum of these resulting digits is 55, so the checksum digit is 60 - 55 = 5

---

The Challenge

Your task is to, given an 8 digit barcode, verify if it is valid - returning a truthy value if the checksum is valid, and falsy otherwise.

• You may take input in any of the following forms:
  • A string, 8 characters in length, representing the barcode digits
  • A list of 8 integers, the barcode's digits
  • A non-negative integer (you can either assume leading zeroes where none are given, i.e. 1 = 00000001, or request input with the zeroes given)
• Builtins that compute the EAN-8 checksum (i.e, take the first 7 digits and calculate the last) are banned.
• This is code-golf, so the shortest program (in bytes) wins!

The result for the first 7 digits of the barcode and the checksum digit must add to a multiple of 10 for it to be valid. Thus, the checksum is valid iff the algorithm applied to the whole list is divisible by 10.

Input is in 8 digits (with leading 0s if applicable) and nothing else.

Outputs via exit code (open the debug dropdown on TIO), where 1 is true and 0 is false.

Try it online!

Explanation

This program uses a variety of tricks.

First of all, it takes the digits in one by one through their ASCII values. Normally, this would require subtracting 48 from each value as we read it from the input. However, if we don't modify it, we are left with 16 (3+1+3+1+3+1+3+1) extra copies of 48 in our sum, meaning our total is going to be 768 greater than what it "should" be. Since we are only concerned with the sum mod 10, we can just add 2 to the sum later. Thus, we can take in raw ASCII values, saving 6 bytes or so.

Secondly, this code only checks if every other character is an EOF, because the input is guaranteed to be only 8 characters long.

Thirdly, the # at the end of the line doesn't skip the first character, but will skip the ; if coming from the other direction. This is better than putting a #; at the front instead.

Because the second part of our program is only run once, we don't have to set it up so that it would skip the first half when running backwards. This lets us use the jump command to jump over the second half, as we exit before executing it going backwards.

Step by step

Note: "Odd" and "Even" characters are based on a 0-indexed system. The first character is an even one, with index 0.

~3*+~+      Main loop - sum the digits (with multiplication)
~           If we've reached EOF, reverse; otherwise take char input. This will always
                be evenly indexed values, as we take in 2 characters every loop.
 3*+        Multiply the even character by 3 and add it to the sum.
    ~       Then, take an odd digit - we don't have to worry about EOF because
                the input is always 8 characters.
     +      And add it to the sum.
      6j    Jump over the second part - We only want to run it going backwards.

        q!%a+2    The aftermath (get it? after-MATH?)
            +2    Add 2 to the sum to make up for the offset due to reading ASCII
          %a      Mods the result by 10 - only 0 if the bar code is valid
         !        Logical not the result, turning 0s into 1s and anything else into 0s
        q         Prints the top via exit code and exits

How it works

2-9^Range@8 is congruent modulo 10 to 2-(-1)^Range@8, which is {3,1,3,1,3,1,3,1}. We take the dot product of this list with the input, and check if the result is divisible by 10.

Takes input as a string. Returns 1 for valid barcodes and 0 for invalid ones.

How it works

The best thing I could find in the way of a built-in (since Mathematica is all about those).

The inside bit, #~BarcodeImage~"EAN8";1, generates an image of the EAN8 barcode, then ignores it entirely and evaluates to 1. However, if the barcode is invalid, then BarcodeImage generates a warning, which Check catches, returning 0 in that case.

  s            ~ Sum.
 e             ~ Last digit.
!              ~ Logical negation.

If the sum of the first 7 digit after being applied the algorithm is subtracted from 10 and then compared to the last digit, this is equivalent to checking whether the sum of all the digits, after the algorithm is applied is a multiple of 10.

Example input: 20378240

(.).
$1$1$&

Replace each couple of digits with the first digit repeated twice followed by the couple itself. We get 2220333788824440

.
$*

Convert each digit to unary. With parentheses added for clarity, we get (11)(11)(11)()(111)(111)...

M`

Count the number of matches of the empty string, which is one more than the number of ones in the string. (With the last two steps we have basically taken the sum of each digit +1) Result: 60

1$

Match a 1 at the end of the string. We have multiplied digits by 3 and 1 alternately and summed them, for a valid barcode this should be divisible by 10 (last digit 0); but we also added 1 in the last step, so we want the last digit to be 1. Final result: 1.

Implements the algorithm as defined. Takes input $a, pulls out each digit with "$a"[0..6] and loops through them with |%{...}. Each iteration, we take the digit, cast it as a string "$_" then cast it as an int + before multiplying it by either 3 or 1 (chosen by incrementing $i modulo 2).

Those results are all gathered together and summed -join'+'|iex. We take that result mod 10, subtract that from 10, and again take the result mod 10 (this second mod is necessary to account for the 00000000 test case). We then check whether that's -equal to the last digit. That Boolean result is left on the pipeline and output is implicit.

Developed independently of Steadybox's answer

'f' is a function that takes the barcode as an int, and returns 1 for True and 0 for False.

• f stores the last digit of x in s (s=x%10),

• Then calculates the sum in c (for(i=c=0;x;x/=10)c+=(1+2*i++%4)*x;)

  • c is the sum, i is a counter

  • for each digit including the first, add 1+2*i%4 times the digit (x%10) to the checksum and increment i (the i++ in 3-2*i++%4)

    • 1+2*i%4 is 1 when i is even and 0 when i is odd

• Then returns whether the sum is a multiple of ten, and since we added the last digit (multiplied by 1), the sum will be a multiple of ten iff the barcode is valid. (uses GCC-dependent undefined behavior to omit return).

    }
    return result % 10 == 0; // returns true if the result is a multiple of 10
}

This uses the alternative definition of EAN checksums where the check digit is chosen such that the checksum of the entire barcode including the check digit is a multiple of 10. Mathematically this works out the same but it's a lot simpler to write.

Can probably be improved a fair bit. Input is taken 1 digit at a time, outputs 1 for true, 0 for false.

How it works:

>>>>++++[<++>-]<

Put 8 at position 3.

[[>],>>++++++[<++++++++>-]<--[<->-]+[<]>-]

Takes input 8 times, changing it from the ascii value to the actual value +2 each time. Inputs are spaced out by ones, which will be removed, to allow for easier multiplication later.

>[->]

Subtract one from each item. Our tape now looks something like

0 0 0 0 4 0 4 0 8 0 7 0 6 0 2 0 3 0 10 0 0
                                         ^

With each value 1 more than it should be. This is because zeros will mess up our multiplication process.

Now we're ready to start multiplying.

<<<<

Go to the second to last item.

[[<+>->+<]<[>+>+<<-]>>[<+>-]<<<<<]

While zero, multiply the item it's at by three, then move two items to the left. Now we've multiplied everything we needed to by three, and we're at the very first position on the tape.

>>>>[>>[<<[>>+<<-]]>>]

Sum the entire list.

<<<++++[<---->-]

The value we have is 16 more than the actual value. Fix this by subtracting 16.

+++++[<++<+++>>-]

We need to test whether the sum is a multiple of 10. The maximum sum is with all 9s, which is 144. Since no sum will be greater than 10*15, put 15 and 10 on the tape, in that order and right to the right of the sum.

<<[<[>>[<<->>-]]>[>>]++[<+++++>-]<<-]

Move to where 15 is. While it's non-zero, test if the sum is non-zero. If it is, subtract 10 from it. Now we're either on the (empty) sum position, or on the (also empty) ten position. Move one right. If we were on the sum position, we're now on the non-zero 15 position. If so, move right twice. Now we're in the same position in both cases. Add ten to the ten position, and subtract one from the 15 position.

The rest is for output:

<[[+]-<]<++++++[>++[>++++<-]<-]>>+.

Move to the sum position. If it is non-zero (negative), the barcode is invalid; set the position to -1. Now add 49 to get the correct ascii value: 1 if it's valid, 0 if it's invalid.

QBasic, 54 52 bytes

Ugh, the boring answer turned out to be the shortest:

INPUT a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h
?(3*a+b+3*c+d+3*e+f+3*g+h)MOD 10=0

This inputs the digits comma-separated. My original 54-byte solution, which inputs one digit at a time, uses a "nicer" approach:

m=3
FOR i=1TO 8
INPUT d
s=s+d*m
m=4-m
NEXT
?s MOD 10=0

MATLAB/Octave, 32 bytes

@(x)~mod(sum([2*x(1:2:7),x]),10)

Try it online!

I'm going to post this despite the other Octave answer as I developed this code and approach without looking at the other answers.

Here we have an anonymous function which takes the input as an array of 8 values, and return true if a valid barcode, false otherwise..

The result is calculated as follows.

              2*x(1:2:7)
             [          ,x]
         sum(              )
     mod(                   ,10)
@(x)~

1. Odd digits (one indexed) are multiplied by 2.
2. The result is prepended to the input array, giving an array whose sum will contain the odd digits three times, and the even digits once.
3. We do the sum which will also include the supplied checksum within our sum.
4. Next the modulo 10 is performed. If the checksum supplied was valid, the sum of all multiplied digits including the checksum value would end up being a multiple of 10. Therefore only a valid barcode would return 0.
5. The result is inverted to get a logical output of true if valid.

not(fPart(.1sum(2Ans-Ans9^cumSum(binomcdf(7,0

Takes input as a list in Ans. Returns 1 for valid barcodes and 0 for invalid ones.

A port of my Mathematica answer. Includes screenshot, in lieu of an online testing environment:

Notable feature: binomcdf(7,0 is used to generate the list {1,1,1,1,1,1,1,1} (the list of probabilities that from 7 trials with success probability 0, there will be at most N successes, for N=0,1,...,7). Then, cumSum( turns this into {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8}.

This is one byte shorter than using the seq( command, though historically the point was that it's also significantly faster.

\+3ff/\?-4/
/a+++/
\%0=n;

Can probably certainly be improved (this is my second ><> program)

How it works:

8>i$1\
 \?:-/

Gets user input, 8 times. Note that since i pushes -1 if the input stack is empty, this may not always return false for inputs shorter than 8 digits.

/
\8+  \
/1-:?v
\ } \$
/++-/f
\+3ff/

Converts the ascii values to their actual values.

      ~r3*+\
      >3*+v<
      }   l
      \?-4/

Remove the counter, and reverse the stack. Then, while the stack is longer than 4, multiply the top value by three, add it to the digit below it, and move the result to the bottom of the stack.

     /
/a+++/
\%0=n;

Sum the values on the stack. If the answer is divisible by 10, the code is valid. If so, print 1, otherwise, 0.

Acc!!, 60 45 bytes

3*N+N+3*N+N+3*N+N+3*N+N-8
Write 1/(1+_%10)+48

Try it online!

Explanation

We read eight digits, multiplying the appropriate ones by 3, and add. It's not quite that simple, because what we're actually reading is ASCII codes, and so each digit has 48 added to it. Thus, the resulting sum is too big by 3*48*4 + 48*4 = 768. We only care about the 1's digit, so subtracting 8 is sufficient to get the correct result.

We want to print 1 if the accumulator mod 10 is 0, and 0 otherwise. Acc!! doesn't have comparison operators, so we have to use integer division:

_%10        0  1  9
1+_%10      1  2  10
1/(1+_%10)  1  0  0

Then we add 48 to get an ASCII value and Write it.

Original 60-byte solution with a loop:

Count i while 8-i {
_+(N-48)*(3-i%2*2)
}
Write 1/(1+_%10)+48

where XXXXXXXX is a zero padded string, it will return either a 0 or a 1 as an exit code

   {     }4*                - Loop 4 times.
    \                       - Swap top two indices of stack
