DGII Modulo 11 Algorithm

Conditional weight branching by correlative series:

Series <= 100: weights [14..2]; Series > 100: weights [2, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2]
  1. 1. Inspect correlative digits 11 to 13.
  2. 2. If series <= 100: apply descending weights 14 to 2, DV = (Sum % 11) % 10.
  3. 3. If series > 100: apply DGII cyclic weights, DV = ((11 - (Sum % 11)) % 11) % 10.
  4. 4. Format as MMMM-DDMMAA-SSS-Y.
