Well put untermensch. Coolfactor's question was very simple and clear, and it deserved an equally lucid, accurate answer. Like the internet in general, there is a lot of fluff floating around these forums.[/quote]
I see issues with literacy or reading comprehension abound; the question had been answered before any further discussion began.[/quote]
Yea, I'm illiterate.
The question had been answered before you entered this thread and "imparted different ideas". Coolfactor clearly stated that the solution must not make any assumptions about format. Instead, you touted "standards" as if credit card numbers have standards. As if every credit card number has 16 digits.
I'm not suggesting that we shouldn't throw ideas around. Everyone has something of value to add. I'm just a bit tired of stubborn posters arguing their questionable solutions to death. A little humility please.
