Squashed commits: [68dfa1e] Add publication ranges, for calculating all ISBN13s for a registrant's prefix

Thanks @slimdave ! I haven't had a chance to look this over yet, but one thing that immediately jumps out is that it would be nice if |
|
That's a good idea. Done. |

It seems like most of the methods use isbn_13 rather than isbn13. My preference would be to standardize on isbn_13 (and isbn_10), and to open a separate PR to rename the anomalous isbn13 method.

A better name for this might also be something like isbn_13_with_corrected_checksum that makes clear that an ISBN is being returned, and not a checksum.

Would be best to add spaces around the - sign like you do in other places in this class.

Spaces around operator here too.

This method seems to have the same return value as the number_of_publications method. Should we pick one?

The naming of this method is confusing. Maybe registration_parts?

This mechanism is a bit hard to understand, but I think from_prefix is basically:
seed_isbn13.parts[0..2].join + "0" * (12 - prefix.size) + checksum
and to_prefix is:
seed_isbn13.parts[0..2].join + "9" * (12 - prefix.size) + checksum
Is it easier to implement and think about by manipulating the parts (as a string), rather than doing the integer multiplication approach?

@slimdave I made a few comments above. I also added you as a collaborator on the repository, thanks for your contributions! Feel free to merge in minor changes like updates to the ranges file as you see fit. Probably a good idea to continue to request review on larger updates such as this. I'll try to be better about reviewing them promptly. Thanks again! |

This adds the ability to use an ISBN13 to generate a publication range object, which can then generate the complete list of valid ISBN13s for that registrant element.
A few other methods are included, mostly for display purposes.
