Revision as of 21:44, 28 November 2012
Write a program that takes a bitcoin address as argument, and checks whether or not this address is valid.
A bitcoin address uses a base58 encoding, which uses an alphabet of the characters 0 .. 9, A ..Z, a .. z, but without the four characters 0, O, I and l.
With this encoding, a bitcoin address encodes 25 bytes:
- the first byte is the version number, which will be zero for this task ;
- the next twenty bytes are a RIPEMD-160 digest, but you don't have to know that for this task: you can consider them a pure arbitrary data ;
- the last four bytes are a checksum check. They are the first four bytes of a double SHA-256 digest of the previous 21 bytes.
To check the bitcoin address, you must read the first twenty-one bytes, compute the checksum, and check that it corresponds to the last four bytes.
The program can either return a boolean value or throw an exception when not valid.
You can use a digest library for SHA-256.
Here is an example of a bitcoin address:
1AGNa15ZQXAZUgFiqJ2i7Z2DPU2J6hW62i
It does not belong to anyone. It is part of the test suite of the bitcoin software. You can change a few characters in this string and check that it will fail the test.
