Tests:

charAt

split
let sum = 0; var digitsLength = digits.length; sum = digits.split('').reduce((prev, curr, index) => { var current = +curr; return prev + current * (digitsLength + 1 - index); }, 0); var lastSumChecker = sum % 11; var checker = lastSumChecker < 2 ? 0 : 11 - lastSumChecker; return checker;
