Damm algorithm is a checksum algorithm designed to provide a way to detect errors in numerical data. It operates through a specific method of encoding and decoding numerical data, particularly useful for validating data integrity in applications like digital communication, credit card numbers, and other identification systems. The Damm algorithm uses a particular modulo operation, based on a predetermined finite state machine (FSM) that is defined by a specific set of rules.
