Luhn validation algorithm

var luhnChk = (function (arr) {
    return function (ccNum) {
        var 
            len = ccNum.length,
            bit = 1,
            sum = 0,
            val;

        while (len) {
            val = parseInt(ccNum.charAt(--len), 10);
            sum += (bit ^= 1) ? arr[val] : val;
        }

        return sum && sum % 10 === 0;
    };
}([0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9]));

Wonderful implementation. I worked a very basic solution to adapt this algorithm to TypeScript, feel free to use or comment on improvements:
`
public luhnAlgorithmCheck(ccNum) {
const arr = [0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9];
let len = ccNum.length;
let bit = 1;
let sum = 0;
let val;

while (len) {
  val = parseInt(ccNum.charAt(--len), 10);
  // tslint:disable-next-line:no-bitwise
  sum += (bit ^= 1) ? arr[val] : val;
}
return sum && sum % 10 === 0;

}
`
Thanks for sharing the original code, @ShirtlessKirk

"12345678".split("").reverse().map(function(c, i) { return ((i%2==0 ? 1 : 2)*parseInt(c)) }).join("").split("").map((c) => parseInt(c)).reduce(function(sum, c) { return sum+=parseInt(c) })

I tested against https://www.paypalobjects.com/en_US/vhelp/paypalmanager_help/credit_card_numbers.htm

76009244561 did not return true

But I'm not sure if this number is really valid. all luhn verification code seem to fail when I use this number.

@ShirtlessKirk What does the array at the end do?

}([0, 2, 4, 6, 8, 1, 3, 5, 7, 9]));

@jefelewis it's a lookup table. Basically, instead of calculating the summed result of the numbers that are doubled (every second digit from right) each time, the code uses the precalculated value stored in the array at the index of the digit in question.

For example, if the digit is 6, the summed double is 3 (6 * 2 = 12, 1 + 2 = 3). In the array, the value at index 6 (the original digit used as a reference) is set to 3.

@ShirtlessKirk Can this be implemented in Shopify or Woocommerce? How can you install it without having access to the payment iframe

Declarative/functional approach:

const checkLuhn = cardNumber => {
    const sum = [...cardNumber].reduceRight((prev, curr, i, arr) =>
        prev+= (i%2)?Number(arr[Number(curr)]):Number(curr)
    ,0);
    return sum && sum % 10 === 0;
}
