Expected duration: less than 1 week I am looking for a highly capable freelancer to reverse engineer the check digit algorithm in a barcode formula.
I will provide full details via PPH messages, however please be informed that me and my team have been stuck on this problem for a few weeks - it is not a simple solution following any traditional check digit alg such as UPC or EAN. It's possible the alg used is inspired by UPC/EAN, so I would like to work with someone with experience in check digit calculation and/or barcodes.
I have a list of barcodes which work (i.e. have the correct check digit), however currently the only method to find the correct check digit is to test 0-9 manually which won't work long-term. Again, I will provide details if you are suited to the project.
If a solution is found it can be delivered via code in any language or as pseudocode. Python is preferred.

The proposed approach:
I send full details of the formula including working examples
The freelancer messages me if they find a solution
I send the freelancer a few barcodes to apply their alg to and they respond with the check digit
I test the barcode with the check digit to confirm it works
