The International Standard Book Number (ISBN) is a unique numeric book identifier which is printed on every book. The ISBN is based upon a 10-digit code.

The ISBN is legal if:
1 × digit1 + 2 × digit2 + 3 × digit3 + 4 × digit4 + 5 × digit5 + 6 × digit6 + 7 × digit7 + 8 × digit8 + 9 × digit9 + 10 × digit10 is divisible by 11.

Example:
For an ISBN 1401601499
Sum = 1 × 1 + 2 × 4 + 3 × 0 + 4 × 1 + 5 × 6 + 6 × 0 + 7 × 1 + 8 × 4 + 9 × 9 + 10 × 9 = 253 which is divisible by 11.

Write a program to:

  1. Input the ISBN code as a 10-digit integer.
  2. If the ISBN is not a 10-digit integer, output the message "Illegal ISBN" and terminate the program.
  3. If the number is divisible by 11, output the message "Legal ISBN". If the sum is not divisible by 11, output the message "Illegal ISBN".

Program:

import java.util.Scanner;

public class RAnsariISBNCheck
{
    public static void main(String args[]) {
        Scanner in = new Scanner(System.in);
        System.out.print("Enter the ISBN: ");
        long isbn = in.nextLong();
        
        int sum = 0, count = 0, m = 10;
        while (isbn != 0) {
            int d = (int)(isbn % 10);
            count++;
            sum += d * m;
            m--;
            isbn /= 10;
        }
        
        if (count != 10) {
            System.out.println("Illegal ISBN");
        }
        else if (sum % 11 == 0) {
            System.out.println("Legal ISBN");
        }
        else {
            System.out.println("Illegal ISBN");
        }
    }
}

Output:

Enter the ISBN: 1401601499
Legal ISBN
Press any key to continue . . .



Enter the ISBN: 140166444
Illegal ISBN
Press any key to continue . . .
