Line 88: == Trailing zeros? == The article explains that leading ~~zeroes~~zeros have no effect on the checksum but that is probably not a weakness but a strength. If there is a weakness, surely it is that trailing zeros have no effect? 13, 130, 1300 and 13000 are all valid. An easy defence would be to reject all numbers ending in (one or more) ~~zeroes~~zeros. [[User:Johnhwoods\|Johnhwoods]] ([[User talk:Johnhwoods\|talk]]) 08:44, 14 April 2024 (UTC) Whilst I'm thinking about zeros, the weaknesses section says that no checksum algorithm is affected by leading zeros. But it looks to me like Verhoeff is.
