Error Detection, Error Correction, Twin Error, Adjacent Transposition ErrorAbstract
The Routing number is a nine-digit code used to identify specific banks and their transactions uniquely. Electronic Funds Transfer Routing Number Scheme is used to calculate the ninth digit of the routing number commonly known as the check digit. Fraud and insecurity cases associated with the banking sector necessitated the need to analyze the routing number scheme capabilities in error detection and correction. This paper discusses some of the significant limitations in the code as well as some of the code design shortfalls affecting the code’s error detection and correction. It is then shown that there is a need for the design of a new code that improves the error detection of the routing number code.
