+ (NSString *)cleanCreditCardNo:(NSString *)aCreditCardNo; - Returns a cleaned up credit card no (ie. no spaces, dashes, etc.).

+ (NSString *)majorIndustryOf:(NSString *)aCreditCardNo; - Returns the major industry of the credit card. Based on the first digit.

+ (NSString *)issuerOf:(NSString *)aCreditCardNo; - Returns the issuer of the credit card.

+ (int)luhnCheckOf:(NSString *)aCreditCardNo; - Returns the computed no. based on the Luhn Algorithm. The last digit entered will always be assumed to be the check digit. Works with any length of numbers. So not really limited to credit card no.

+ (BOOL)validityOf:(int)aLuhnNo; - Just mod 10 the parameter. Returns YES if Luhn no. passed is divisible by 10.
