Luhn Validation

version: 0.0
2008-03-12
========

This is a validation function for a Luhn Number (typically a Credit Card).
It's my first foray in to Erlang. It will likely also be the last though.

This took about 3 days of intermittant work until I figured out how Erlang
works (I don't do much -- if any -- functional programming). Eventually,
I got it to validate, although it could probably be done more efficiently
by an Erlang master.

It uses a non-concurrent model because, a) I don't know how a concurrent 
version of this could be useful or even made, and b) I had a hard enough
time with it the way it is.

One side note, the input must be in a list (e.g. [1, 2, 3, 4]). I couldn't
find out how to parse a string in to a list and I gave up on the 
project/language shortly afterwards.
