The calculation of an ISBN-13 check digit begins with the first twelve digits of the 13-digit ISBN (thus excluding the check digit itself). Each digit, from left to right, is alternately multiplied by 1 or 3, then those products are summed modulo 10 to give a value ranging from 0 to 9. Subtracted from 10, that leaves a result from 1 to 10.
The final character of a ten-digit International Standard Book Number is a check digit computed so that multiplying each digit by its position in the number (counting from the right) and taking the sum of these products modulo 11 is 0. The digit the farthest to the right (which is multiplied by 1) is the check digit, chosen to make the sum correct.
A VIN with straight-ones (seventeen consecutive 1s) has the nice feature that its check digit 1 matches the calculated value 1. This is because a value of one multiplied by 89 (sum of weights) is 89, and 89 divided by 11 is 8 with remainder 1 ⁄ 11; thus 1 is the check digit. This is a way to test a VIN-check algorithm.
Digit 9 is the check digit, which is assigned by the manufacturer to ensure VIN accuracy. Vehicle identifier section: The third section further identifies the individual vehicle.
The check digit is computed as follows: If the number already contains the check digit, drop that digit to form the "payload". The check digit is most often the last digit. With the payload, start from the rightmost digit. Moving left, double the value of every second digit (including the rightmost digit). Sum the values of the resulting digits.

ISBN-10 and ISBN-13 use different check digit algorithms to compute the last digit of the ISBN. The following tools will convert any ISBN-10 to an ISBN-13 along with the correct check digit value. Nihiltres' ISBN tool; ISBN converter of the U.S. Library of Congress; ISBN converter of ISBN.org; Stylistically, please:
Verhoeff had the goal of finding a decimal code—one where the check digit is a single decimal digit—which detected all single-digit errors and all transpositions of adjacent digits. At the time, supposed proofs of the nonexistence [6] of these codes made base-11 codes popular, for example in the ISBN check digit.
