The International Standard Book Number system-13 (ISBN-13
) is a
thirteen digit code which uniquely identifies every book pub
lished internationally.
The code was formed as an improvement to the ISBN-10 code whic
h could detect
and correct some errors but could generate fewer code words t
hus the great need for
expansion. This paper highlights some properties, discuss
es major limitations and
shows the error detection and correction capabilities in th
e code versus the effect
the total number of code words that the code can generate. |
