How to Verify a Credit Card Number Using the Luhn Algorithm

This guide explains how to verify a credit card number using the Luhn algorithm. Beginning with the second digit from the right, you'll double every other digit. After processing the digits, you'll break them into individual digits and sum them. If the total ends in zero, the credit card number is valid. An example (49927398716) illustrates each step, ensuring clarity in performing the calculation. Follow these steps to confidently verify credit card authenticity.
